-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Resonant resounding chanting
is the wellspring for all of our endeavours.
Simply having an idea or strategy does not guarantee victory
but instead its our serious determined daimoku that does!
Bursting with life force and energy,
let's win in every challenge and open up the path
to constant success and victory!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"What does Bodhisattva Never Disparaging's profound respect for people signify? The purpose of the appearance in this world of Shakyamuni Buddha, the lord of teachings, lies in his behaviour as a human being."
(The Three Kinds of Treasure - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 852) Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, June 25th, 2011

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"You yourself determine the direction your life will take. Cherishing noble goals will elevate you as a person. The only limitations for youth are self-imposed ones, resulting from undervaluing oneself. Those who have the spirit to keep learning never give in to resignation. This is because the more you apply yourself to learning, the more you can develop your unique creativity."
SGI Newsletter No. 8265, Learning Is the Light That Illuminates Society, translated June 24th, 2011, from the May 9th, 2011, issue of the Seikyo Shimbun
