[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] To My Friends & Daily Gosho March 23rd + Words of the Week March 23rd-29th

A translation of President Ikeda's "To My Friends"
published in the Seikyo Shimbun and more.

Monday, March 23rd, 2009
-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's make every effort to meet, talk and establish
heart-to-heart links with others.
Kosen-rufu is the art of challenging ourselves to elevate
and broaden our state of life.
Confidently and courageously,
let's try to meet with many people
and develop as many good relations as we possibly can.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Life is limited; we must not begrudge it. What we should
ultimately aspire to is the Buddhaland."

(Aspiration for the Buddha Land - The Writings of Nichiren
Daishonin, Vol.1, page 214) Selection source: "Kyo no
Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, March 23rd, 2009

March 23rd - 29th, 2009
--- WORDS OF THE WEEK ---
Spring is the season for change for many people,
such as graduation, a new school to go to, a new job or a transfer.*
Let's give our warm support and encouragement to those who
are about to make a new start.
Together with our wonderful Soka family,
wherever we might be,
it is certain that it is the Land of Eternally Tranquil Light.

*In Japan, a new school year and fiscal year starts in
April.
