-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
Continuity and repetition -
these are the key elements to opening up a great path to kosen-rufu.
If we patiently and sincerely continue to share this Buddhism with others
the connections that we have helped them to form
on Mondays and "To My Friends" will appear on the other days of the week. So

"In the past, and in the present Latter Day of the Law, the rulers, high
ministers, and people who despise the votaries of the Lotus Sutra seem
to be free from punishment at first, but eventually they are all doomed
to fall."

Vol 1, page 997) Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun,

"…plotting and deviousness are standard methods employed by evil people
to malign the good and true. The same pattern that we see in the
Daishonin's time remains in use today. But wrongs are always exposed in
the end. The self-assured actions of the good and true make the
difference between right and wrong eminently clear. That is the message
that the Daishonin wished to impart to his disciples."
