* Coming to you from Phuket, The Lake District Okinawa, no matter where we all are...
A translation of "To My Friends" published in the Seikyo Shinbun based on President Ikeda's recent guidance, and more.
-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Continuity and persistence
Is what strengthens our "strengths."
Setting goals for each and every day
let's achieve them all, one by one!
When we win over our weaknesses
we create the source
for all future victories!

"Nevertheless, even though you chant and believe in Myoho-renge-kyo, if you think the Law is outside yourself, you are embracing not the Mystic Law but an inferior teaching. 'Inferior teaching' means those other than this [Lotus] sutra, which are all expedient and provisional."

"The real challenge has begun! Whatever my position, I will keep fighting—even if I am completely alone. I will win by striving in a spirit of oneness with my mentor. 'Justice' means advancing forever on the great path of kosen-rufu!"
