-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's sincerely care for our fellow members,
whom we strive to achieve kosen-rufu together with,
and do our very best to respect and look after them.
That is how we can show our true sincerity for others and
maintain a good rhythm in our faith and our practise.
With indestructible unity between each fellow member,
let's all advance together, victoriously and successfully!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"You must not spend your lives in vain and regret it for
ten thousand years to come."

(The Problem to Be Pondered Night and Day - The Writings
of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 622) Selection source:
"Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, October 3rd, 2008

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"As Nichiren Daishonin states: 'When once we chant Myoho-renge-kyo, with
just that single sound we summon forth and manifest the Buddha nature of
all...living beings. This blessing is immeasurable and boundless' (WND-1,
887). We all possess within us the most precious and respectworthy
life-state of Buddhahood. The aim of promoting our movement for kosen-rufu
through dialogue is to address, awaken, and draw forth the Buddha nature
inherent in each person's life. When we earnestly chant daimoku and
courageously reach out to others in dialogue, we can enable many people to
form a connection with Buddhism and thereby spread understanding of the
Mystic Law."
