-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Especially when we're busy,
let's advance 

even more cheerfully than ever!
By offering warm heartfelt words 

and 

showing our sincerity in our actions,
let's brighten our friends' hearts 

and help them to feel strong!

"One who chants the daimoku as the Lotus Sutra teaches will never have a twisted mind. For one should know that, unless the mind of the Buddha enters into our bodies, we cannot in fact chant the daimoku."

(The Blessings of the Lotus Sutra 

- WND, Vol. 1, page 670)

"Chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo in times of suffering and joy. In that diligence, that tenacity in faith, you can transform your karma and achieve human revolution. When chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo brings you great joy and pleasure – that's real faith."
