-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
We, Soka heroes,* 

will be victorious based on
"chanting daimoku 

   for absolute victory,"
"using our voices 

infused with courage and sincerity"
and having "perfect unity 

with the spirit of many in body, 

one in mind."
Let's develop an 

indestructible treasure land 

in our local community!

*The Hero of the World is another name for the Buddha, so called
because he valiantly confronts all sufferings and leads all people to
enlightenment. - "The Hero of the World" (WND, Vol.1, page 840)
