-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The Daishonin says:
"My wish is that all my disciples make a great vow."*
Oh youth, we really are counting on you
to live out the great pledge for kosen-rufu!
Awaken great fervour and passion in yourselves
and spur yourselves into action.
* Gosho - The Dragon Gate, WND1, page 1003)
