--TO MY FRIENDS --
The Daishonin teaches us,
"Put into flames, 
(a rock simply turns to ashes, but) 
gold becomes pure gold."* 
On the road to kosen rufu, 
the challenges we face 
make us stronger and stronger.
Now is the time to break through those walls
towards our growth and expansion!

*Gosho: WND-I, "Letter to the Brothers," page 497

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"These two words 'body' and 'mind' refer to the transmission of the teaching that our bodies and our minds are the Wonderful Law. Nichiren and his followers chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, and thus attain Buddhahood in their present forms."

(Devadatta chapter - OTT, page 102)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Treating those around us as friends with whom we share profound ties and transforming our community into a realm of happiness through the light of the Mystic Law constitute the great path to realising the Daishonin's ideal of 'establishing the correct teaching for the peace of the land.'"
