-- TO MY FRIENDS --
In order to actualise the ideal
of establishing a peaceful
and flourishing land,
let's forge the determination
this year
to make outstanding advancement.
Along with our fellow members
who have taken the vow
for kosen-rufu,
and with the unity we have of
many in body, one in mind,
let's write a truly grand history!

The lion king is said to advance three steps, then gather himself to spring, unleashing the same power whether he traps a tiny ant or attacks a fierce animal.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"No matter what a challenging area we may find ourselves in, if we return to our original vow as Bodhisattvas of the Earth, we realise that it is the very place we have chosen from the infinite past to fulfill our mission. We are surrounded by incredible fellow members and many others with whom we share profound karmic ties."
