Daily Encouragement by Daisaku Ikeda

Let's read the Gosho regularly. Even just a little is fine. Even a single sentence. Just opening the Gosho is a start. At any rate, let's strive to read the Daishonin's writings. It's important to have the spirit to study the Gosho, to open up the Gosho. Even if you forget what you've read, something profound will have been engraved in the depths of your life.
From the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin

Even an individual at cross purposes with himself is certain to end in failure. Yet a hundred or even a thousand people can definitely attain their goal, if they are of one mind.
Many in Body, One in Mind

One who has mastered himself is truly free. Freedom lies in the heart of the sage, servitude in the heart of the fool.
Excerpt from Daisaku Ikeda - A Youthful Diary (04 December 1949 p.14)
My physical condition is quite bad. Health above all. Gongyo is the only way to improve it.
Disagreeable weather. Clouds in the sky, and I feel like there are clouds in my heart, too. Small creature that I am, the elements play with me at their will.
Started preparing for a new project today.
