-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The Daishonin encourages us with the words,
"I entrust you with the propagation of Buddhism
in your province."*
Today again,
by engaging in courageous
and sincere conversation with others,
let's help as many people as possible
to form a connection with Buddhism!
Let's become a beacon of light
that brightens our community
just as would a lighthouse!
*"The Properties of Rice" - WND-I, page 1117

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"By making friends with one person after another, and thinking and acting from their perspective, we are able to limitlessly expand our own life force. Chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo helps us bring forth that power.
"Let's chant vibrant daimoku again today and take a step forwards from where we were yesterday!
"Your future, and the future of humanity, is in your own heart."
Rainbow of Hope—-Great Figures of the World - (35) Eleanor Roosevelt, American Social Activist and Former First Lady, from the Feb. 1st, 2017 Hope News, translated released March 2018
