-- TO MY FRIENDS --
To all of our dear friends
in beautiful Shin'etsu,
abloom with fragrant flowers
of capable people.
Let's continue to engage in sincere
and earnest conversation
with all the people
we share a "karmic" bond with.
Let's set off on our journey,
sharing our struggles
for kosen-rufu,
towards victory!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"We will never lower the banner of the Daishonin's ideal of 'establishing the correct teaching for the peace of the land,' no matter what obstacles or adversity beset us. Should powerful opponents try to obstruct our advance, the more solidly we—like-minded friends sharing the great vow for kosen-rufu—will unite, bring forth our strength and fight to triumph over all.
"Through actively participating in the great struggle for kosen-rufu, each of us can enact our personal drama of human revolution and write a new page of positive transformation for our communities."
April Editorial, Never Retreating Is the Heart of Soka, from the monthly magazine Daibyaku Renge, translation released June 2019
