May 17th - 23rd, 2010
---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
The Daishonin encourages us,
"You must raise your voice all the more and admonish
[those who slander]."*
In a confident and clear voice,
let's talk to others about our movement
and why we are doing what we do.
By mustering up our courage,
let's spread justice into society.
And based on our honesty and true care for others,
let's really develop the trust we have with others.

"Kamatari Suggests the Fashioning of a Buddha Image" - WND-II, page 597
