Let's keep our planning meetings short but productive.
Let's conduct all our activities in a victorious rhythm
so that everyone can advance happily and enthusiastically.

"It is said that, if a teacher has a good disciple, both
will gain the fruit of Buddhahood, but if a teacher
fosters a bad disciple, both will fall into hell. If
teacher and disciple are of different minds, they will
never accomplish anything."
(Flowering and Bearing Grain - The Writings of Nichiren
Daishonin, Vol.1, page 909) Selection source: "Kyo no
Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, August 3rd, 2009

---- Words of the Week ----
The challenging spirit for kosen-rufu is the
very entity of Myoho-renge-
There is absolutely nothing that we need to be afraid of.
Let's tap all the Buddha's wisdom and strength that we
need and cheerfully win every challenge that we take on!
