-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Trust is only developed through constant sincere actions.
By establishing a solid foundation right where our feet are now,
let's build a golden citadel of kosen-rufu!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Myo means to revive, that is, to return to life."

(The Daimoku of the Lotus Sutra - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, page 149) Selection Source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shinbun September 24th, 2012

September 24th-30th, 2012
---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
Our efforts to talk with others about our kosen-rufu movement
will remain as a meaningful
"memory of your present life in this human world."(*)
Let's enthusiastically help others to form a connection with Buddhism!
And while joyfully opening up our hearts to tell people about this practise,
let's elevate our life condition
and at the same time accumulate good fortune and benefit.

*"Single-mindedly chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo and urge others to do the same; that will remain as the only memory of your present life in this human world." - "Questions and Answers about Embracing the Lotus Sutra", WND-I, page 64
