-- TO MY FRIENDS --
To all of our Men's Division members,
who protect and support everyone in the Soka family,
thank you so much for always being there for us!
It is most certain that all the Buddhas and Buddhist gods
are praising all of your struggles and efforts
even if they are not seen or recognised by anyone else.

"In the light of the above points, this shows my followers, cut short
your sleep by night and curtail your leisure by day and ponder this! You
must not spend your lives in vain and regret it for ten thousand years
to come."

"As long as we continue in faith, we can redirect any of life's misfortunes or failures into something positive. That's why genuine practitioners of Nichiren Buddhism are never deadlocked. Wholeheartedly chanting and dedicating oneself for kosen-rufu—such passionate determination and practice can illuminate the darkest night."
