Tuesday, May 9 Reiwa 5 (2023).

 Drafting a speech for my daughters and their families on my 72nd birthday.
  Last year, do you remember talking about my epitaph? I remember watching the movie "Back to the Future" and seeing the letters on the tombstone disappear, which made me want to think about my own epitaph. The date on my epitaph was actually July 24th, 2023, and it has become a true dream. I died in January of this year, marking my third death in life.
 Just like a famous general once said "I shall return," I too would like to say that I have returned to meet you all with eternal love. I should mention that I have come back to this world four times due to unknown forces of the universe.
Therefore, I believe that I should tell you everything I know about these unknown forces of the universe. The driving force of my life was chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo to the Gohonzon every day and every time.
 If we do not harbor doubts in our hearts, we will as a matter of course attain Buddhahood" (p283, The Opening of the Eyes).
