-- TO MY FRIENDS --
To all of our Young Women's Division members --
the most important time to lay a solid foundation,
for the rest of your lives, is now.
Make it a point not to be late when returning home
(from particularly activities) at night.
It's also important to lead every single day of our lives
without any accidents!
Let us each play our part in making great strides
towards our noble goal!

"Believe in this mandala with all your heart. Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is like the roar of a lion. What sickness can therefore be an obstacle?"
(Reply to Kyo'o - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 412)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Buddhism is a humanistic teaching. It enables us to find supreme hope within ourselves--hope that is represented by the infinite nobility of our own lives. When we can find supreme hope in our own lives, we can also find the same luminous hope in the lives of others. We can awaken to our mission of building a new and better world characterised by respect for life and human dignity, based on a fundamental spirit of empathy and caring for others. And we can begin to walk the path of positive transformation and value-creation while dauntlessly confronting even the most difficult realities.
"This is the spirit demonstrated by the Bodhisattvas of the Earth who are described in the Lotus Sutra. An inner transformation in the life of one person can lead to a change in the lives of countless others, and ultimately transform the entire world. It is the mission of Bodhisattvas of the Earth to set in motion and spread such an ever-expanding current of positive value and hope. Crucially important here is that first person awakening and taking action."
