-- TO MY FRIENDS --
"I will be victorious
through my faith and practice!"
With such unshakable determination,
the momentum for victory is born.
Aiming at new peaks towards kosen-rufu,
let's challenge ourselves,
by chanting powerful daimoku
resolved to never give up!

"It must be ties of karma from the distant past that have destined you to become my disciple at a time like this. Shakyamuni and Many Treasures certainly realised this truth. The sutra's statement, 'Those persons who had heard the Law dwelled here and there in various Buddha lands, constantly reborn in company with their teachers,' cannot be false in any way."
(The Heritage of the Ultimate Law of Life
- WND, Vol. 1, page 217)

"The castle of Soka should protect the people, providing them and their communities with security. Our struggle to 'establish the correct teaching for the peace of the land' is really nothing other than building an indestructible castle of the people. Each member's sincere efforts to help as many people as possible to form a connection with Nichiren Buddhism, motivated by their wish to see their communities thrive and prosper, serve to make that castle ever more solid and secure."
Our Briliiant Human Revolution, A Spring Shining with the Triumphant Light of Happiness, March 11th, 2019, Seikyo Newspaper, translation released May, 2019.
