-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Imposing mountains are formed 
by major crustal movements.
Likewise, 
humans can also build a strong self 
in the midst of upheavals.
Let's become champions of life 
who can transform all trials into
priceless treasures!

*The first president of the Soka Gakkai, Tsunesaburo Makiguchi, offers this profound guidance: "Although there is a saying that even dust, when it accumulates, can form a mountain, there are in fact no mountains that have been made from accumulated dust... Real mountains are formed by sudden, dramatic shifts in the earth's crust." President Makiguchi strictly teaches us here that we can only fundamentally transform ourselves and build an unshakable state of life by engaging in an earnest struggle of great good against great evil. 
(ref. Ikeda Sensei's essay, 
"Thoughts on The New Human Revolution" 
published in the Seikyo Newspaper, 
July 14th, 2001 issue)

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Suffer what there is to suffer, enjoy what there is to enjoy. Regard both suffering and joy as facts of life, and continue chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, no matter what happens. How could this be anything other than the boundless joy of the Law? Strengthen your power of faith more than ever."
