-- TO MY FRIENDS --
When someone makes a great change in their life,
for sure there is always someone behind them who has encouraged them.
Brimming with life force,
let's imbue our friends with courage and confidence
and practice "relieving suffering and providing comfort and ease"
(- the ultimate expression of the spirit of a Buddha).

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"For though one's trustworthiness may at first go unnoticed, in time it will be openly rewarded."

(The Four Virtues and the Four Debts of Gratitude - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.2, page 636) Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, May 21, 2012

May 21st-27th, 2012
---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
"What sickness can therefore be an obstacle?"*
Chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo with the power of a roaring lion,
let's be strong, use our wisdom and advance in the very best of good spirits,
making sure that our good health is our number one priority!
