-- TO MY FRIENDS --
By chanting daimoku with strong resolute faith,
let's first of all challenge the obstacles within our
hearts and minds that tend to limit our possibilities!
The driving force for creating a really glorious history is
nothing, but courage.

"Suffer what is there to suffer, enjoy what there is to enjoy. Regard both
suffering and joy as facts of life, and continue chanting
Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, no matter what happens."

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"As the Scottish historian Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881) wrote: 'Thou, there
where thou art, wrestle and [struggle] along, cheerfully to the end.' These
words indicate the path of victory in life. Happiness doesn't exist
somewhere else, separate from our daily lives. We need to begin to create
happiness right where we are. That's the place where we should win. When we
do so, the most challenging and adverse situation will be transformed into a
golden, victorious Land of Eternally Tranquil Light."
