--TO MY FRIENDS--
As "leaders,"
let's push our way through
at the grassroot level and find those
who are suffering and encourage them.
Our compassion manifests itself
let's push our way through
at the grassroot level and find those
who are suffering and encourage them.
Our compassion manifests itself
in our swiftness to respond.
Let's spread a sense of unity
and connection
that gives people reassurance
and peace of mind.

"Although I and my disciples may encounter various difficulties, if we do not harbor 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."

"You are practising the unsurpassed Buddhism of Nichiren Daishonin. Ultimately, whatever path you choose, you can shine in your own unique way and lead a fulfilling life.
"The Mystic Law is the teaching of creating value out of everything. It gives us the wisdom and strength to make positive use of all our struggles and experiences. So please don't worry. As the principle of 'cherry, plum, peach and damson' (cf..OTT, 200) indicates, every flower is unique; some bloom early, others later. All you need to do is bring the flower of your own potential to bloom in a way that is true to yourself."
From On the Wings of Your Dreams, [11] May You Be Victors in Life!, March 2018 issue of the Future Journal, translation released May 2019.
