-- TO MY FRIENDS --
To dedicate ourselves to achieving kosen-rufu by making
selfless and tireless efforts is the ultimate way of
repaying our debts of gratitude.
Be determined to assume the entire
responsibility of accomplishing kosen-rufu,
and so be the genuine disciples of your mentor!
*"The sincerity of his efforts to repay his debt of gratitude illuminates
the world. We, too, have become happy thanks to the Gohonzon. And thanks to
the SGI, which has taught us about the Gohonzon, we have learned the correct
path in life." (The Wisdom of the Lotus Sutra,Vol. 6, page 13)

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"If in a single moment of life we exhaust the pains and trials of millions
of kalpas, then instant after instant there will arise in us the three
Buddha bodies with which we are eternally endowed. Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is
just such a 'diligent' practice."

Teachings, page 214) Selection source:

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"We cannot have peace in the world if we concentrate solely on pacts among
nations. A truly deep and abiding peace can only be created through
fostering friendship and harmony among peoples and individuals. Fostering
peace on the individual level is, I believe, the way to achieve lasting
world peace."
