-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The brilliance of this faith manifests itself in our behaviour as human beings.
By greeting others with a refreshing voice and friendly smile,
let's make friends with as many people as we can
and do our best to gain their trust.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"There are two kinds of propagation, that is, to sow the seed of Buddhahood: letting people hear the teaching and leading people to arouse faith in the teaching. The former is clear—letting people hear the teaching; the latter is leading people to arouse faith in the teaching and accept the Gohonzon.
"Even if the person you speak to doesn't start practising immediately, you have planted the seeds of Buddhahood in their heart, so they will eventually accept this faith. Enabling people to hear about Buddhism is the basis of propagation."
