-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let us really appreciate the efforts of
the Soka, Security and Byakuren (youth volunteer) groups
as well as our precious members who sincerely work hard for kosen-rufu!
The Buddhas and bodhisattvas
are certainly observing and applauding your efforts and struggles!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Never seek this Gohonzon outside yourself. The Gohonzon exists only within the mortal flesh of us ordinary people who embrace the Lotus Sutra and chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo."
(The Real Aspect of the Gohonzon - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 832)

---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
Friendships are the treasures of our life.
Let us cherish our long-term friends
and at the same time build bonds with new people too!
Brightly and cheerfully let us expand our network of friends
helping them establish a connection with the practice,
and at the same time work on expanding our own life state!
