-- TO MY FRIENDS --
A smile is a gift from the heart
 sharing thoughts
  of appreciation and sympathy,
let's spread courage
and a sense of both relief 
and assurance.
Let's act as we chant 
for our friends' happiness
with sincerity and vitality!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
They give their lives for shallow, worldly matters but rarely for the Buddha's precious teachings. Small wonder they do not attain Buddhahood.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Making the Daishonin's heart our own and sharing the spirit 'I don't need anything else—all I hope for are capable people,' both Mr. Toda and I devoted ourselves to training and fostering capable individuals. This is the foundation of everything. Young people to whom we can entrust the future are crucial. Fostering a single precious future division member creates immeasurable good fortune and benefit that will lead to the expansion of kosen-rufu."

The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating the World, [52] To My Friends of Each Division Engaged in Our Shared Struggle—Part 6 [of 6], Appreciation for Those Who Encourage and Support the Future Division. From the August 2019 edition of the Daibyaku-renge, translation released August 2020
