-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Assumptions, biased beliefs 
or preconceptions can easily 
build up limitations or barriers
in our minds.
If we break that shell 
hindering our hearts,
we can enlarge 
our circle of friendship 
far beyond our expectations.
Come, let's summon up 
our courage and
open up a conversation 
with as many people as possible!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"There is definitely something extraordinary in the ebb and flow of the tide, the rising and setting of the moon, and the way in which summer, autumn, winter, and spring give way to each other. Something uncommon also occurs when an ordinary person attains Buddhahood. At such a time, the three obstacles and four devils will invariably appear, and the wise will rejoice while the foolish will retreat."

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"When we expand the realm of our concern, we bring forth even greater courage, wisdom and compassion, and are filled with a deep sense of meaning and purpose. Soka Gakkai members everywhere are striving day after day to elevate their own lives while contributing to the happiness of others and to society. This is the path to attaining Buddhahood in this lifetime and the practice of human revolution."

The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating the World, "The True Aspect of All Phenomena"—Take the Lead in Spreading the Philosophy of Respect for the Dignity of Life! Building a Happy, Peaceful World, June 2020 issue of the Daibyakurenge - Monthly Soka Gakkai study journal, translation released April 2021.
