-- TO MY FRIENDS --
We have been experiencing torrential rains
in almost every part of Japan.
Please be extremely wary of flash flooding
or sudden downpours.
I hope that the deliverers
of our SGI publications
will also exercise
the utmost of precaution,
keeping safety as their top priority.

"In the object of devotion for observing the mind, the Daishonin writes: 'When the skies are clear, the ground is illuminated. Similarly, when one knows the Lotus Sutra, one understands the meaning of all worldly affairs (WND-1, 376).
"With the illuminating wisdom of the Daishonin's Buddhism of the sun, let us light the way forwards to hope, harmony and prosperity—for our families, communities, nations and global society."
