-- TO MY FRIENDS --
"Let's make our district the greatest solidarity
of capable and talented people in Japan (and in the world)!"
Chanting daimoku with such a strong determination
is the key to development and progress.
By putting our hearts together towards achieving kosen-rufu,
let's build a fresh new solidarity of the Bodhisattvas of the Earth!

"In view of the accuracy of his prediction, can there be any doubt that,
after this period described in the Great Collection Sutra when 'the
pure Law will become obscured and lost,' the great pure Law of the
Lotus Sutra will be spread far and wide throughout Japan and all the
other countries of Jambudvipa?"
(The Selection of the Time - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol 1,
page 550) Selection source: Buddhist Study, Seikyo Shimbun, May 13th,

"Buddhism is a constant battle between the Buddha and negative
functions. That's why we must always have the spirit to speak out
against evil and wrongdoing in this world. Only by firmly denouncing
great evil can we achieve great good. Those who keep up this struggle
for truth and justice, in spite of encountering obstacles and
difficulties, are certain to attain Buddhahood in the end."

Documents" [1], Profound Gratitude for a Follower's Sincerity, from the
