-- TO MY FRIENDS --
It's warm, heartfelt bonds
with others
that are the lifeline
to our propelling kosen-rufu forwards.
While thinking of our fellow members
who are unable to attend meetings
and chanting earnest daimoku for them,
let's offer them
our sincerest encouragement!

"One of the subjects Professor Arnold Toynbee and I discussed was that the way people respond to difficulties in their environment forms the groundwork for the development of their particular civilisation. One of the conclusions Professor Toynbee had reached, based on his monumental understanding of history, was the theory of 'challenge and respond.' He keenly perceived that new civilisations emerge from tenacious societies whose people, when faced with some test by the environment – including nature—responded to the challenge and refused to be defeated by it."
