-- TO MY FRIENDS --
To all of our Kayo-kai (Young Women's) members,
who are so dedicatedly advancing together,
just like precious sisters to each other,
fulfilling your youthful vow,
thank you so much for giving us such great hope!
May you shine like brilliant suns in your local community,
work and home,
gaining the trust of everyone you come in contact with.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Be diligent in developing your faith until the last moment of your life. Otherwise you will have regrets. For example, the journey from Kamakura to Kyoto takes twelve days. If you travel for eleven but stop with only one day remaining, how can you admire the moon over the capital?"
(Letter to Niike - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 1027)
