-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's try to create maximum value
within the limited amount of time
we have available!
If we seize every moment
If we seize every moment
and put forth our best,
we can make one day
we can make one day
worth many.
With vigour,
With vigour,
let's win in today's challenges!

"Wishing for the Ikegami brothers and their wives to remain firmly united, the Daishonin continued to offer them words of encouragement and guidance. For instance, he shared the admonition: 'Become the master of your mind rather than let your mind master you'* (WND – 1, 502).

"To allow our mind to master us is to let our weak and ever-moving mind rule and sway us. In contrast, to master our mind is to prevail over our inner weakness by making the correct teaching of the Mystic Law our foundation."
