-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's all stay absolutely accident free especially during
this hectic year-end holiday season.
What is important is that each of us decides,
"I'm not going to let a fire or any other kind of accident
occur!"'
First and foremost,
let's chant daimoku earnestly and seriously about this!

"Never seek this Gohonzon outside yourself. The Gohonzon
exists only within the mortal flesh of us ordinary people
who embrace the Lotus Sutra and chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo.."

Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 832) Selection source:

new paths in a constant renewal of strength--that has always been the secret
of progress.'"
