-- TO MY FRIENDS --
An organisation where the "vice" leaders
are enthusiastic and in high spirits is truly strong.
I hope that the central figures in every area will
proactively seek out the opinion and support of their members.
Let us win through our combined power and efforts!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"This is similar to a tarnished mirror that will shine like a jewel
when polished. A mind now clouded by the illusions of the innate
darkness of life is like a tarnished mirror, but when polished, it is
sure to become like a clear mirror, reflecting the essential nature of
phenomena and the true aspect of reality."

(On Attaining Buddhahood in This Lifetime - The Writings of Nichiren
Daishonin, Vol.1, page 4)
Selection source: "Myoji no Gen", Seikyo Shimbun, September 27th, 2010

"The Earth is the home of the human family, and we are all family members and comrades. That's why we need to regard all the suffering and misery in the world as our own suffering. This is a truly Buddhist way of life."
