-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The courageous heart of a lion king is the very spirit of the SGI.
No matter how trying our problems or obstacles might be,
let's muster up all our courage and overcome each and every one of them!
This is how to establish continual and everlasting victory.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Mr. Makiguchi often used to say: 'In life, there are bound to be times of
adversity. Those times are the most decisive. That is when you must strive
your hardest, persevering through all, no matter what. You mustn't lose
courage. That way, good times will definitely come to you again.'"
