-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Buddhism is about winning and being successful!
First, let us chant earnestly and wholeheartedly
(to make the impossible possible).
Second, let us be strongly united in our efforts,
with the spirit of 'many in body, one in mind'.
Third, let us muster up all our courage
so that we may leave no stone unturned
in our efforts towards achieving our goals.
Based on these three very important ingredients,
let's strive to achieve complete victory in our lives.

* SGI President Ikeda outlined these three very important ingredients for success in his message to the June headquarters' leaders' meeting.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Nichiren and his followers are few, because they are different in body, but united in mind, they will definitely accomplish their great mission of widely propagating the Lotus Sutra. Though evils may be numerous, they cannot prevail over a single great truth."

(Many in Body, One in Mind - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 618)
