-- TO MY FRIENDS --
In our very beloved local community,
let's raise as many capable successors
of kosen-rufu as we can!
"Come fellow Bodhisattvas of the Earth,"
continually chanting daimoku
with such profound a prayer for them to appear,
let's consistently look after each person,
let's consistently look after each person,
one by one!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"In June this year, the Argentine human rights activist and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Adolfo Perez Esquivel and I issued an appeal titled 'To the Youth of the World: An Appeal for Resilience and Hope.' It articulates our conviction that no matter what trials and difficulties humankind faces, there is hope as long as there is a network of youth prepared to courageously tackle them.

"'Resilience' refers to powerful solidarity and social strength that enables people to overcome adversity together by aiding, supporting and encouraging one another. We help spread and expand this solidarity through our dialogues for peace.
