— TO MY FRIENDS --
Collective effort by fresh new people is
the very driving force for kosen-rufu's advancement.
Let's carefully look out for new capable individuals
and give them all the support and encouragement we can
so that they can make the best possible development and growth!
This is the key to us being victorious.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Those who believe in the Lotus Sutra are as if in winter, but winter always turns to spring."
(Winter Always Turns to Spring - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 536) Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, Feb 24th, 2014

-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
The Daishonin states,
"Even more valuable than reason and
documentary proof is the proof of actual fact."*
Nothing can speak more eloquently
than someone's personal experience.
With our voices brimming with confidence,
let's again today help as many people as we can,
to form a connection with Buddhism
for the sake of their happiness!
