-- TO MY FRIENDS --
It's about that time of year when
many of us suffer from
post-summer fatigue.
The key to maintaining good health
and longevity is living
a well-regulated life.
Let's particularly pay close attention
to heat stroke
and wisely take good care of ourselves!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"'None of you who declare yourselves to be my disciples should ever give way to cowardice.'
– From 'The Actions of the Votary of the Lotus Sutra' (WND –1, 764).
"This is a timeless declaration of Nichiren Daishonin, the Buddha of the Latter Day of the Law. If we consider ourselves his disciples, we must never be afraid. No matter how fiercely the winds of adversity rage around us, we will be dauntless and proudly stand firm. Courage is the heart of the Daishonin's disciples.
"He also writes in the same letter: 'Each and everyone of you should be certain deep in your heart' (WND –1, 764). With firm determination, let us forge ahead on the path to victory based on the shared vow of mentor and disciple!"
