-- TO MY FRIENDS --
""I am a Bodhisattva of the Earth!"
Those who have such a firm belief
are strong.
For the sake of kosen-rufu,
for our friends' happiness
and in order to fulfil our mission in this life,
let's lead each and every day
with this strong powerful determination
and resolve!

"In The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings, the Daishonin states: 'The blessings and wisdom of the objective and subjective worlds are immeasurable. Nam-myoho-renge-kyo has these two elements of blessings and wisdom' (OTT, 218).
"Let us envelop those around us and our societies in the light of the good fortune and wisdom of the Mystic Law, and realise a world of happiness and security for all! Never retreating is the heart of Soka."
April Editorial, Never Retreating Is the Heart of Soka, from the monthly magazine Daibyaku Renge, translation released June 2019
