-- TO MY FRIENDS --
July, the month of youth.
The Daishonin states,
"Iron, when heated in the flames 
and pounded, becomes 
a fine sword."*
To our dearest young friends 
who are devoted 
to achieving kosen-rufu,
may you spend 
your youthful days 
growing and developing
through challenging to overcome 
all the hardships that you face!

*"Letter from Sado" (WND, Vol.1, page 303)

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Regard your service to your lord as the practice of the Lotus Sutra. This is what is meant by 'No worldly affairs of life or work are ever contrary to the true reality.'"

(Reply to a Believer
