-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Doing a refreshing gongyo and chanting invigorating daimoku every morning
is the driving force that puts us on a direct path to victory!
With fresh resolve glowing in our hearts,
let's enthusiastically make a whole new start towards our goals!

"Worthy persons deserve to be called so because they are not carried away by the eight winds: prosperity, decline, disgrace, honour, praise, censure, suffering, and pleasure."

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"As the great Russian author Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910) wrote: 'Life is a process of challenging your limitations and expanding your capacities.'
"When we dedicate our lives to the greatest and highest goal--kosen-rufu--all of our abilities are employed and our full potential blooms."
