"In a sense, to live is to find our way through dark nights when destiny's storms strike. We struggle against hardship while desperately trying to open a way forwards. But when the sun rises, everything becomes clear. The frozen earth revives, flowers bloom and butterflies dance. The sun is the Buddha nature within us.

"I hope each of you will be a sunlike presence in your families, communities and workplaces. Please encourage others, brighten the hearts of friends in sorrow, and send the light of joy, courage and hope to those around you. The teachings of Nichiren Buddhism are like the sun. Therefore, we must be like the sun, too."
