-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
This month is dedicated to 
our treasured 
Future Division's members
dynamic progress.
The Mystic Law enables everyone 
to shine just as they are 
without undergoing any change.*
Let's help support 
these young people's 
unique and diverse personalities, 
with infinite possibilities,
to fully blossom.

*"When one comes to realise and see that each thing—the cherry, the plum, the peach, the damson—in its own entity, without undergoing any change, possesses the eternally endowed three bodies, then this is what is meant by the word ryō, "to include" or all-inclusive." 
(OTT, page 200)
