-(GZ, pg 984)
Drizzle in the morning. Cleared up in the afternoon. Warm all day.
Went to Kanagawa in the afternoon. Visited the homes of M., N., S., Y. and M. Wish to move powerfully, even though I feel uncomfortable in some situations. Cannot become a winner unless I strive powerfully.
In the evening, Mr. Toda lectured on the Letter to Akimoto.
- Wish to raise the sacred torch of propagation in my community.
- It is agony to know that I am the disciple of the Daishonin yet cannot propagate the Law.
To bed at 12:30. My room is warm.
