Tuesday, May 25th, 2010
-- TO MY FRIENDS --
"I take my stand," "Take yours, too."*
Let us stand solidly together,
striving and advancing shoulder-to-shoulder alongside all the members of our district and chapter!
Together let us enact an inspiring drama of victory,
as we strive towards the achievement of our common goal of kosen-rufu!

* Opening lines of the historic Song of Human Revolution (jpn, Ningen kakumei no uta). "I also take my stand. Take yours, too. Each in our own realm of Kosen-rufu! Stand alone! Hold high the flag of justice and courage. Open the way for a new civilization to blossom."

"In the light of the above points, this shows, my followers, that you had better cut short your sleep by night and curtail your leisure by day, and ponder this! You must not spend your lives in vain and regret it for ten thousand years to come."

(The Problem to Be Pondered Night and Day - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 622)
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, May 25th, 2010

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"While in the midst of a struggle, one may feel they are only making desperate efforts, but it is at times like this that one grows the most, advances, and polishes oneself. Striving is the springboard to success and victory."
