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.

One who has mastered himself is truly free.  Freedom lies in the heart of the sage, servitude in the heart of the fool.

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
