-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Courageous action is another name for compassion.
What is vital in our actions though is that we do not limit what we can do!
Let's constantly chant daimoku for the happiness of our friends
and courageously challenge starting up new conversations!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"It is already over twenty years since I began proclaiming my doctrines. Day after day, month after month, year after year I have been subjected to repeated persecutions."

—— DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ——
"In life, and in our daily affairs, small courtesies are important. For instance, when your partner goes off to work, I hope you will send them off with a smile and say, "Have a good day." And when they come home tired, I hope you'll greet them warmly. . . ."
