-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The Gosho says:
"Even more valuable than reason and documentary proof
is the proof of actual fact."*
Yes! June, the month of rapid advancement, is here!
Let us be able to write in the diaries of our lives
tales of absolute victory (and actual proof,)
based on our faith and practice.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
No matter what, stay close to the priest who knows the heart of the Lotus Sutra, keep learning from him the principles of Buddhism, and continue your journey of faith.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"'How far can our own wisdom take us? If we have even enough wisdom to distinguish hot from cold, we should seek out a good friend.'
From 'Three Tripitaka Masters Pray for Rain' (WND-1, 598).
"Our organisation is a wonderful gathering of 'good friends' in the realm of Buddhism. The Daishonin would certainly offer high praise for our discussion meetings where people of all ages and walks of life come together as equals to encourage and support each other.
"When we advance in solid unity as good friends on the path of human revolution, the power of the Buddha will unfailingly manifest in our lives and we will be able to overcome any difficulty."
