-- TO MY FRIENDS --
It is important for all of us who are in positions of leadership and
responsibility in the SGI
to take the initiative in opening up and talking about our own struggles and
inspirations towards kosen-rufu.
Words, pulsating with accounts of our own real-life experiences,
have a great effect in inspiring hope and courage in the lives of our
friends and fellow-members.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Even if you are not the Venerable Mahakashyapa, you should all perform a
dance...When Bodhisattva Superior Practices emerged from the earth, did he
not emerge dancing?"

(Great Evil and Great Good - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, page 1119)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"When we forge ahead with an ever-youthful spirit of challenge, we can
accomplish the impossible and change the world. In the words of 16th U.S.

never succeed.'
