-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Being able to respond to all kinds of situations
with prompt and appropriate attention
is the most essential responsibility of a "leader."
I am counting on you all to be leaders of sincerity and warmth
who take action for the sake of our fellow members
and for kosen-rufu!

"If you want to understand the causes that existed in the past, look
at the results as they are manifested in the present. And if you want
to understand what results will be manifested in the future, look at
the causes that exist in the present.."
(The Opening of the Eyes - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol. 1,
page 279)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Buddhism is based on reason. If we overeat, drink too much, don't get enough sleep, and work too hard, eventually we'll feel the ill effects of that behaviour, become sick, or cause an accident. To prevent that from happening, we need to act wisely and lead a sound and value-creating life. This is the Buddhist way.
"It is vital to lead a balanced, disciplined life, do gongyo and chant daimoku to refresh and revitalise ourselves, and then, brimming with life force, actively participate in our workplaces and communities."
SGI Newsletter No. 8311, The New Human Revolution––Vol. 24: Chap. 4 , Beacon 11, translated Aug. 31st, 2011
