-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Only by challenging ourselves to achieve higher goals
are we able to break out of our shells.
By challenging ourselves more courageously than ever and
earnestly making unceasing efforts,
let's follow the path to glorious victory that our mentor
has opened for us through his own great struggles.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"A blue fly, if it clings to the tail of a thoroughbred horse, can travel
ten thousand miles, and the green ivy that twines around the tall pine can
grow to a thousand feet."

(On Establishing the Correct Teaching for the Peace of the Land - The
Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 17)
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, May 1st, 2009

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"History should serve as a guide to building a better future. And as the
American civil rights activist Rosa Parks (1913-2005) once declared: 'The
way we live now will affect the state of the world in the future.'"
