-- TO MY FRIENDS --
I really want to help 
that friend become happy.
I really hope this friend 
will become an ally of our movement.
Actions taken with genuine caring sincerity 
move people's hearts.
Let's cultivate flowers of friendship 
that bloom in abundance.

--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Nichiren Daishonin writes: 'The wonderful means of truly putting an end to the physical and spiritual obstacles of all living beings is none other than Nam-myoho-renge-kyo' (WND –1, 842).

"Faith in the Mystic Law is the essential means for creating value so that we can realise absolute happiness and lasting peace, aligning us with the fundamental rhythm of life and the universe.

" Faith is indeed a treasure of life, an eternally youthful spirit, a life of joy and inspiration, a source of harmony, a path to peace, a way to understand humanity and an unsurpassed guide to happiness."

The Eternal Citadel of Soka, The Infinite Power of the Bodhisattvas of the Earth, from 27th December, 2018 edition of Seikyo Newspaper, translation released February 2019.
