-- TO MY FRIENDS --
With real joy in our hearts, 

let's help as many people 

as we can to form 

a connection with Buddhism!

Interactions that 

bring humans together are 

the unquestionable drive force
towards building peace 

and security for all people!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The Daishonin states that we should not lament in the face of adversity but continue forging ahead with dauntless courage.

"Great omens always precede great events, and great evil portends the arrival of great good, the Daishonin asserts; it is amid truly challenging circumstances that the great correct Law is certain to spread. But it will not do so of its own accord, with us simply standing by and doing nothing.

"When calamity strikes, it only becomes a sign of great good if we view it as an opportunity for growth and strive with unwavering determination and effort to transform it into something positive."

The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating The World, [66] The Journey of Mentor and Disciple for Worldwide Kosen-rufu—Creating a Global Network for Peace, "The Great Correct Law Will Spread without Fail," from the October 2020 issue of the Daibyakurenge - the Soka Gakkai's monthly study journal, translation released July 2021
