―WORDS OF THE WEEK―
Nichiren Daishonin states,
“The seeds of Buddhahood sprout
  Through causation.”(*)
Let’s treasure each connection
  that we have and sow seeds of
  Buddhahood as a cause of
  their happiness!
Let’s take joy in engaging in heart to heart
  exchanges with old friends and new
  acquaintances.

(*) [LSOC2, 75]; “The Properties of Rice,” cf WND I, p. 1117
It is stated [in the second chapter of the Lotus Sutra] that “the seeds
of Buddhahood sprout [through causation], and for this reason they [the
Buddhas] preach the single vehicle [the Mystic Law]”
