A great history is created 
when there is a line of successors.
Let's make a united effort 
to raise the young people 
of the next generation!

"The Japanese author Saneatsu Mushanokoji (1885-1976) hailed from the Chofu area of Tokyo, close to the Tama River, which the Daishonin crossed on his travels. Embarking on a difficult enterprise, he declared that now was the crucial moment, stressing: 'We must take another step forwards. We must strive with determination on every front."*

"The more challenging the times, the more precious are our bonds of mutual encouragement."
