To My Friends

–TO MY FRIENDS–
Taking action is the spirit
of Buddhism.
Let’s act boldly!
If we meet people and
engage in dialogue
our spirits will soar and
our life condition will expand.
Today, again, let’s take a
courageous step forward!

–Words of the Week–
The Daishonin encourages us to
“strive ever harder in faith(*).”
The Buddhas and heavenly deities
will be roused to action through
our indomitable prayer and efforts.
With a tenacity of purpose and
unity based on a kindred spirit,
let’s bring to bloom
cherry blossoms of Soka
in rampant profusion!

Translation of “Words of the Week” published in the Seikyo Shimbun, based on President Ikeda’s recent guidance, with universal value and application.
