-- TO MY FRIENDS --
If we exert ourselves in manifesting 

the powers of faith and practice,
we can unleash the powers of 

the Buddha and the Law 

to make the impossible possible.
By putting our daimoku into action,
let's break open a great path 

to the expansion of kosen-rufu!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Everything hinges on capable people.

"The Daishonin writes: 'One whose presence pervades the realms of heaven, earth and humanity and who does not waver in the slightest is called [a king]" (cf.WND–1, 1063).

"True kings, True champions of humanity, are those who remain unshaken, calm and resolute, who take responsibility for working for the happiness and security of the people and the peace and prosperity of society. These are the defining qualities of capable individuals of principle and integrity that the world is waiting for."
