-- TO MY FRIENDS --
When one person opens up the path to growth and development
two, three and more people will follow.
This is the formula for victory.
Let's each become the shining star in our communities,
the trailblazers of a new age!

"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."
(The Problem to Be Pondered Night and Day
- The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol. 1, page 622)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The only thing that renders us powerless is when we give up
and decide for ourselves that we can't go on. That is like closing
the door on our inner potential or locking away our spirit
by our own hand. Giving up is the cause of defeat.
"Faith in the Daishonin's Buddhism gives us the power
to break through the darkness of despair
and make the sun of life rise in our hearts."
