-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's always take the utmost precautions
against any earthquake occurrence,
(or any other natural disasters)
and make every effort to prevent against
any possible hazards!
Through wisely collecting accurate information,
let's voice words of reassurance
and help other people around us,
especially the elderly, to feel safe!

"'The stronger one's faith, the greater the protection of the gods.' This means that the protection of the gods depends on the strength of one's faith. The Lotus Sutra is a fine sword, but its might depends on the one who wields it."

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
" When we rouse deep faith and chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, the Gohonzon in the depths of our being is illuminated and drawn forth by the clear mirror of the physical Gohonzon we chant to. We can see the world of Buddhahood in our own life. Because by merely embracing it, we can observe our mind and attain enlightenment, the Gohonzon has the tremendous power to enable us to overcome any hardship and resolve all troubles."
The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating the World, (29) A Religion of Human Revolution—Part 9, Tapping Our inner Buddhahood with the Gohonzon, September 2017, Daibyaku-renge, translation released May, 2018
