-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's treasure our neighbours and community!
Cheerful vibrant greetings
and actions based on good common sense
are what deepens friendships.
Nothing can be better diplomacy
than actions of sincerity!

"Although I and my disciples may encounter various difficulties, if we do not harbour doubts in our hearts, we will as a matter of course attain Buddhahood. Do not have doubts simply because heaven does not lend you protection. Do not be discouraged because you do not enjoy an easy and secure existence in this life."
(The Opening of the Eyes
- WND, Vol. 1, page 283)

"No matter what our current circumstances, all of us have chosen to be born into this world with different kinds of karma in order to carry out the noble task of kosen-rufu and lead all people of the Latter Day of the Law to happiness.
"When we are firmly convinced of this in the depths of our being, gratitude and joy are certain to well forth from our lives."
The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating the World, [38] A Compass Guiding us to Lives Brimming with Joy and Pride, Attaining Buddhahood in One's Present Form, June 2018 issue of Daibyaku-renge, the Soka Gakkai monthly journal. Translation released March 2019.
