As leaders, let’s do our utmost
to lend reassurance through our words
so that everyone can manifest their
full potential.
It’s important to empathize
and inspire confidence and
conviction.

Begin by taking action yourself,
engaging one friend in
Buddhist dialogue and
encouraging one fellow member.
Strengthening and developing your
deep resolve will lead to
expanding kosen-rufu!

We are able to strengthen and
cultivate our life condition
amidst the great struggles we
undergo for the sake of kosen-rufu.
Nichiren Daishonin stated,
“[The greater the hardships befalling him,]
the greater the delight
he feels, because of his strong faith.”(*)
Let’s brave adversity with our
heads held high and advance!

(*)”A Ship to Cross the Sea of Suffering,” WND I, p. 33

Be ever vigilant and take
precautions against accidents
at nightfall or in the middle
of the night when visibility is low.
Be aware of the dangers of operating
smartphones while walking,
and turn on the headlamps of
your bicycle early (before it gets dark).

Genuine youth is the spiritual
power to always develop oneself.
Stagnation leads to backsliding.
Challenge yourself afresh and
don’t give in to apathy and indolence!
