-- TO MY FRIENDS --
"Someone will probably do it"
is not the way to manifest
our true strengths and abilities.
Instead,
"I will take on this challenge!",
is what it means to have
a stand alone faith and practice
and what enables us to tap into
unlimited wisdom from within!

"The ultimate purpose that Mr. Makiguchi stressed was the happiness of both self and others.. In other words, it is not solely about one's own happiness, nor is it solely about the happiness of others. Everyone becoming happy together is the Buddhist concept of happiness."
The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating the World, [38] A Compass Guiding us to Lives Brimming with Joy and Pride, June 2018 issue of Daibyakurenge, the Soka Gakkai monthly journal. Translation released March 2019.
