-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The Daishonin expounds,
"Words echo the thoughts of the mind
and find expression through the voice."*
It's our enthusiastic passionate prayer
for the happiness of all people
that moves our friends' hearts!
Let's make ceaseless efforts
to have earnest and sincere
caring conversations.

"I hope you'll use your wisdom and creativity to find ways to improve and maintain your health.
"Our Buddhist faith and practice are the driving force for good health. But that doesn't mean we should be complacent about our health. Precisely because we practice Buddhism, we should tap our wisdom and put it to use.
"Those who are always lively and full of energy, those who keep growing and developing, healthy in body and spirit, bring a breath of fresh air to those around them.
"Please work to stay vibrant and healthy each day for you, your family and your mission. I hope you'll make this a personal commitment."
