-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The Daishonin reminds us,
"A person who upholds
the Lotus Sutra
is repaying the debt of gratitude
owed to their father and mother."
To devote one's life to kosen-rufu
is the ultimate path to offering
appreciation to our parents.
To the youth,
let's take good care of
and appreciate our parents,
allowing our lives to really shine!

*from "The Four Virtues and the Four Debts of Gratitude" WND-2, page 638

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
Now you two brothers are like the hermit and the man of integrity. If either of you gives up halfway, you will both fail to achieve Buddhahood.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Life can be described as a long, intense struggle with destiny. Only by triumphing in that struggle can we achieve happiness. When we squarely confront life's inescapable realities, engaging in that win-or-lose battle, we cannot but recognise the importance of having faith in the Mystic Law as a powerful source of life force and establishing an unshakeable inner core."

The New Human Revolution—Vol. 27, Seeking Spirit 13, translation released July 2021.
