-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The Daishonin states,
"Worthy persons deserve
to be called so
because they are not carried away
because they are not carried away
by the eight winds."*
Those who have
Those who have
unshakable conviction and
are undeterred by obstacles
are undeterred by obstacles
are true victors!
Let's become mighty trees
Let's become mighty trees
that stand steadfast even in storms!
*"Worthy persons deserve to be called so because they are not carried away by the eight winds: prosperity, decline, disgrace, honour, praise, censure, suffering, and pleasure. They are neither elated by prosperity nor grieved by decline. The heavenly gods will surely protect one who is unbending before the eight winds."

"The prayers of those who wish for everyone's happiness, shoulder responsibility for kosen-rufu and do their best in organisational activities are truly powerful. Such people have abundant life force. In addition, by dedicating yourselves to the happiness of members and the people in your community, you can align your lives with the rhythm of the Mystic Law. This is Buddhist practice for accruing boundless good fortune. I want you to know that this is the way to do your human revolution and speed up the process of changing your karma."
