-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The development of friendly and trustworthy relations with
other people depends on how we speak to others.
With a voice that rings with integrity and confidence,
let's help as many people as possible to understand
what our movement is all about.

*"Words echo the thoughts of the mind and find expression through the
voice." - "The Unanimous Declaration by the Buddhas of the Three Existences
regarding the Classification of the Teachings and Which Are to Be Abandoned
and Which Upheld", WND-II, page 843

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Employ the strategy of the Lotus Sutra before any other."

(The Strategy of the Lotus Sutra - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin,
Vol.1, page 1001) Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun,
February 26th, 2009

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"As the Great Teacher T'ien-t'ai wrote: 'No worldly affairs of life or work
are ever contrary to the true reality' (WND, 905). Worldly affairs are in
no way separate or divorced from Buddhism. That's why the thoughts and
actions of leading figures from society often have so much in common with
Buddhism."

SGI Newsletter No. 7721, The New Human Revolution--Vol. 22: Chap. 1, A New
Century 51, translated Feb. 24th, 2009
