-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Summer is a golden opportunity
to pass on our faith and practice 
to future generations.
Let's share our family's experiences 
of working for kosen-rufu 
with our children and grandchildren.
By having such warm open chats with them,
let's all truly develop 
and make great progress together!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"The debt of gratitude owed to one's father and mother is as vast as the ocean."

(On Filial and Unfilial Conduct
 - WND, Vol. 1, page 1033)
Selection Source: "Suntetsu", 
Seikyo Shinbun , Aug.. 3rd, 2019

Monday, August 5th
---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Because working for kosen-rufu is a long-term undertaking spanning the eternal future of the Latter Day of the Law, the correct way for us to proceed is to strive to win in the present, while also maintaining a longer perspective of 50- or 100-year periods. I am taking various steps now for the sake of the distant future."

The Wisdom for Creating Happiness and Peace, Conclusion: Towards the Future—Part 1[of 2], 1. A New Series of Seven Bells towards the Year 2050, December 2017 Daibyakurenge, translation released June 2019.
