-- TO MY FRIENDS --
With courage and perseverance,
let's aim straight towards the pinnacle of victory.
Let's put forth our very best, without ever thinking about giving up.
Let's achieve all that we set out to achieve
and make it the paramount victory in our lives,
and at the end of the day let's be able to say,
from the bottom of our hearts,
"Yes! I really have won!"

"Each of you should summon up the courage of a lion king and never succumb to threats from anyone. The lion king
fears no other beast, nor do its cubs."

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The Daishonin warns: 'This world is the domain of the devil king of the sixth heaven' (WND-1, 495). Our world today is rampant with devilish functions that cause people to suffer and give rise to friction and social disorder. Establishing the correct teaching for the peace of the land is the struggle to vanquish those devilish functions, based on the Mystic Law, and build a realm of happiness and peace. In other words, it is a struggle between the Buddha and devilish forces, one that is fought in the lives--the hearts and minds--of each individual. Everything starts from there. That is why establishing the correct teaching for the peace of the land must begin with one-on-one dialogue.
