-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's always try to look out for our neighbours well-being.
By being sincere in our words and actions,
let's develop warm relationships with everyone around us.
The stage of kosen-rufu in our local community
is right where our feet are now!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Names are important for all things."
(Letter to Jakunichi-bo - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Volume 1, page 993) Selection source: "Myoji no Gen", Seikyo Shimbun, February 18th, 2013
February 18th-24th, 2013
---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
The Daishonin states,
"Nothing is more certain than actual proof."*
It's our own personal experiences that have the strongest impact.
Let's share the greatness of this Buddhism
and how it has enabled us to overcome all kinds of hardship.
Let's hold some wonderful discussion meetings this month
full of smiles and laughter!
