-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Aiming towards achieving the greatest victories ever,
let's start the year off in the very best of good spirits!
With persistent and earnest daimoku,
brimming with strong life force,
let's all stand up on our own two feet
and strive boldly, and resolutely, to fulfil our great goals.
