-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Connecting each person in front of us 
to a heart of peace 
is the surest path to securing 
the peace, flourishing and happiness 
of human society!
Through our grassroots movement*,
let's help to spread the philosophy 
of respect for the dignity of life 
throughout society.

*A Grassroots Movement: "Peace is not some abstract concept far removed from our everyday lives. It is a question of how each one of us plants and cultivates the seeds of peace in the reality of daily living, in the depths of our being, throughout our lives. I am certain that herein lies the most reliable path to lasting peace."

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"A blue fly, if it clings to the tail of a thoroughbred horse, can travel ten thousand miles, and the green ivy that twines around the tall pine can grow to a thousand feet."

(On Establishing the Correct Teaching for the Peace of the Land 
- WND, Vol. 1, page 17)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"'Our happiness in this life is nothing but a dream within a dream' (cf. WND–1, 760), the Daishonin says. The happiness gained from pursuing fame and fortune is fleeting. True joy is found in striving for kosen-rufu. The noble work of reaching out to support and encourage those who are suffering become our greatest memory, creating a golden history in our lives."

The New Human Revolution, Vol. 27, Seeking Spirit 37, translation released Feb. 2022.
