-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The month of the Soka Gakkai's founding
has now begun.
Let's all start anew with a fresh spirit and new
determinations as if we had just been reborn.
Let's create the type of victorious dramas that are
absolutely unforgettable.

"When one comes to realise and see that each thing--the
cherry, the plum, the peach, the damson--in its own
entity, without undergoing any change, possesses the
eternally endowed three bodies, then this is what is meant
by the word ryo, 'to include' or all inclusive."
(Ongi kuden - Gosho Zenshu, page 784, The Record of the
Orally Transmitted Teachings, page 200) Selection source:

"The Lotus Sutra praises the Bodhisattvas of the Earth as 'a treasure among persons' (LS15, 221). The mission of the Bodhisattvas of the Earth is to bring people together and shine as treasures of the local community and society at large."
