-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The Daishonin writes,
"Nichiren's followers are like roaring lions."
Burning with the vow for kosen-rufu,
without sparing our voices,
let's boldly speak to others!
*From "On Persecutions Befalling the Sage" WND-1, page 997

To accept is easy; to continue is difficult. But Buddhahood lies in continuing faith.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Alone, human beings are weak. People's hearts change easily. It's human nature to forget one's firm determination or vows with the passing of time. That's why our fellow members and the Soka Gakkai organisation are so crucial. We must unite, look out for, and encourage one another with the resolve that neither we nor anyone else will fall by the wayside."
The New Human Revolution,Vol. 28, Great Path 34, translation released April 2023.
