-- TO MY FRIENDS --
"Myo means to revive, that is, to return to life."
No matter what kind of karma or hardships we might be facing right now,
our practice of Buddhism enables us to transform such challenges
into our unique and special mission.
Let's together sing a victorious song of our human revolution!

*Gosho: The Daimoku of the Lotus Sutra - WND-1, pg 149

—— DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
Naturally, in the case of illness, seeking the best medical treatment should also always go hand in hand with a strong practice of chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo. It is my dearest wish and prayer that all of our members will live wisely and make health their top priority.
