-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The Daishonin states,
"The more one praises
the blessings of the Lotus Sutra,
the more one's own blessings
will increase."*
Let's wholeheartedly praise
Let's wholeheartedly praise
each and everyone's
strenuous efforts.
Such sincerity is
the very key to victory!

"If we stop to consider, we realise that one observes the precepts in order that one may repay the debt of gratitude that one owes to one's father and mother, one's religious teachers, the ruler of the nation, one's own particular lord, living beings as a whole, and to the three treasures. One owes a profound debt to one's father and mother for having raised one, and a heavy debt to all living beings for mutual help and assistance."

"Our communities are places with which we share deep karmic ties; they are our provinces where the Daishonin has entrusted us with the propagation of Buddhism (cf.WND–1, 1117). In the places we have chosen to fulfil our vow for kosen-rufu, let's enfold in good fortune everyone we form a connection with and joyfully pledge together to create a groundswell of happiness and peace, for all humankind!"
