-- TO MY FRIENDS --
It is our unbending determination
to overcome hardships
that enables us to break through
that enables us to break through
the self-imposed limitations
we have.
Each and everyday,
unceasingly and patiently,
let's take on every challenge
let's take on every challenge
with courage and diligence!

The first shi of the word shishi, or "lion" [which means "teacher"], is the Wonderful Law that is passed on by the teacher. The second shi [which means "child"] is the Wonderful Law as it is received by the disciples. The "roar" is the sound of the teacher and the disciples chanting in unison. The verb sa, "to make" or "to roar," should here be understood to mean to initiate or to put forth. It refers to the initiating of Nam-myoho-renge-kyo in the Latter Day of the Law.

"The basics of our Buddhist practice are faith, practice and study. Faith means having faith in the Gohonzon. Practice is practice for ourselves and others, which includes not only chanting but also spreading the teachings and working for kosen-rufu. Study is studying Nichiren Daishonin's teachings.

"Simply believing in the Gohonzon, chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo and studying Buddhism are not enough. To correctly practice Nichiren Buddhism requires actions for kosen-rufu."
