-- TO MY FRIENDS --
It's in our work places or in the home that the true stage
of our human revolution exists.
Happiness blossoms only through taking steady steps,
each and every day, proving that "faith manifests itself in daily life".*
*"Regard your service to your lord as the practice of the Lotus Sutra. This is what is meant by 'No worldly affairs of life or work are ever contrary to the true reality.'" - "Reply to a Believer", WND-I, page 905

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"And yet, though one might point at the earth and miss it, though one might bind up the sky, though the tides might cease to ebb and flow and the sun rise in the west, it could never come about that the prayers of the practitioner of the Lotus Sutra would go unanswered."
(On Prayer - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 345)
