-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Within our very own lives,
lies the potential to totally and utterly improve
our circumstances.
It's only our weak faint hearted minds 
that holds us back.
Armed with courage and conviction,
let's break down that wall
(that may seemingly be so difficult 
to overcome)!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Kyō'ō's misfortune will change into fortune. Muster your faith, and pray to this Gohonzon. Then what is there that cannot be achieved?"

(Reply to Kyō'ō 
- WND, Volume I, page 412) 
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", 
Seikyo Shinbun, Feb. 21st, 2016

Monday, February 22nd, 2016
---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Meeting people forges personal ties. Sincere words impart courage to others, which in turn expands our network of hope.  

"Even though your efforts to share Buddhism may be rebuffed, your sincere intent is sure to leave its mark. It can change even opponents into allies.

"One-on-one dialogue breaks down walls and opens new roads."
