-- TO MY FRIENDS --
"The Lotus Sutra is like the lion king,
who rules over all other animals."*
Having great confidence and conviction in our hearts,
let's chant and go all out to share our philosophy with others.
Let's make every effort to build heart-to-heart bonds with others.
There is nothing more powerful than our faith.
* Gosho: The Drum at the Gate of Thunder. WND-1, pg 949

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"If we can look beyond the diverse distractions of daily life--the noisy surface of an information society that appeals only to people's nerve endings--we will discover an innate capacity to appreciate genuine reality, to hear the heartbeat of that which is truly worth living for."
SGI Newsletter No. 7986, SGI President Ikeda's Peace proposal, Towards a New Era of Value Creation, translated April 28th, 2010
