-- TO MY FRIENDS --
To all of our Future Division members
(school students up to high school),
our priceless treasures for kosen-rufu,
try to keep on studying, no matter what,
aiming towards your dreams and goals!
I hope all of you, 
brimming with the vow you made 
in the springtime of your youth,
will use this summer as an opportunity 
for you to develop and grow.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Suffer what there is to suffer, enjoy what there is to enjoy. Regard both suffering and joy as facts of life, and continue chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, no matter what happens. How could this be anything other than the boundless joy of the Law? Strengthen your power of faith more than ever."

(Happiness in This World 
- The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, 
Volume 1, page 681)
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin",
