-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The daimoku that we sincerely chant
for the sake of our friends' happiness
definitely reaches their hearts.
Unceasingly and with patience,
let's share with others how wonderful this Buddhism is
and expand our solidarity as Bodhisattvas of the Earth!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Giving our all with the spirit that faith is manifested in daily life, in our work, and in our character gives rise to trust and promotes the development of kosen-rufu.
"Trust isn't built overnight. It is fostered through the accumulation of our daily actions. Such trust is the cornerstone of human relationships."
