-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The time to stand up,
The time to tack action for kosen-rufu,
is here, right now!
Let's have the resolute spirit that the Daishonin talks of in
"The Selection of the Time,"*
and create great dynamic waves!

*"Therefore, I say to you, my disciples, try practising as
the Lotus Sutra teaches, exerting yourselves without
begrudging your lives! Test the truth of Buddhism now!" -
"The Selection of the Time", WND-I, page 584

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"And yet, though one might point at the earth and miss it,
though one might bind up the sky, though the tides might
cease to ebb and flow and the sun rise in the west, it
could never come about that the prayers of the
practitioner of the Lotus Sutra would go unanswered."

(On Prayer - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1,
page 345) Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo
Shimbun, June 8th, 2009

June 8th-14th, 2009
---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
Let's show our utmost respect and appreciation to all
of our Women's Division members,
who we admire as the world's greatest!
Let's take the very best of care of our "mothers."
And by making every possible effort we can to respond to their
sincere prayers,
let's crown them with magnificent crowns of victory!
