-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Right where we are, in our local areas,
let's seek out and raise even more new people,
making every effort to help them become truly great human beings.
Let's strive together to build a great palace where the Soka sprit will long endure and people will prosper for all eternity.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"It also states that, if the minds of living beings are impure,
their land is also impure, but if their minds are pure, so is their land. There are not two lands, pure or impure in themselves. The difference lies solely in the good or evil of our minds."

(On Attaining Buddhahood in This Lifetime - The Writings
of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 4) Selection source:
"Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, September 7th, 2009

September 7th-13th, 2009
---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
Let's head straight into the hub of where our friends are and
really create some waves of positive cheerful conversation.
Our "voices" truly can be a reflection the power of the Buddha.
So let's make our voices ring with lots of encouraging words
and, as a result, let's advance together in solid unity!
