-- TO MY FRIENDS --
People who sincerely strive to realize the pledges they made in their youth
grow and advance to an unimaginable degree.
Let us walk steadfastly along the noble path (of faith)
that we chose to follow of our own volition!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"One never in any way disobeys a parent; is always mindful of providing a parent with all manner of good things, and if this happens to be impossible, in the course of a day one at least smiles twice or thrice in their direction."

(The Four Virtues and the Four Debts of Gratitude - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Volume 2, page 636)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
Then Shin'ichi said earnestly: "Put your complete faith in the Gohonzon, and pray with all your being. To realize your prayers and transform your karma, it's vital to have firm conviction in faith. The power of the Gohonzon is absolute. The purpose of Buddhism is to enable all people to become happy."
