-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Those who have 

a deep sense of purpose 

are not carried away
by the troubled waters of reality.
Always asking ourselves 

"for what purpose,"
let's live out our lives 

by fulfilling our missions as 

Bodhisattvas of the Earth.
Such lives are certain 

to shine with happiness 

and victory!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Concerning the 'peaceful' practices of the Lotus Sutra of the Wonderful Law and the practices carried out by Nichiren and his followers now in the Latter Day of the Law, you should understand that, when one practices the Lotus Sutra under such circumstances, difficulties will arise, and these are to be looked on as 'peaceful' practices."

(Peaceful Practices chapter 

- OTT, page 115)
