-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Rather than relying on someone else to do things,
let's instead, each one of us, create that first surge of victory.
The amount of good fortune and benefit that we can accumulate by taking
the initiative towards achieving victory is absolutely immeasurable.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Therefore, one should by all means persist in preaching the Lotus Sutra and
causing them to hear it. Those who put their faith in it will surely attain
Buddhahood, while those who slander it will establish a 'poison-drum
relationship' with it and will likewise attain Buddhahood."
(How Those Initially Aspiring to the Way Can Attain Buddhahood through the
Lotus Sutra - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 882) Selection

---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
The essential point of our Buddhist practice is to have
person-to-person, one-on-one dialogue.
Let's be proud of what we do and get involved on the forefront of
activities.
By chanting daimoku with strong faith and talking about
this Buddhism and its humanism as much as we can,
let's continue to advance cheerfully and confidently!
