-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The growth and development of any organisation
depends completely on the growth of its leaders!
As leaders let's be the ones who decide that first
"the change starts with me changing!"
And that "it all starts from right now!"
Let's lead the way by being the trailblazers of advancement!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"(Words are what give expression to the distinctions that are thought of in the mind. Therefore, outside of the mind there are neither distinctions nor the absence of distinctions.) Words echo the thoughts of the mind and find expression through the voice."
(The Unanimous Declarations by the Buddha - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Volume 2, page 843)
