-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The formula for achieving victory and success in any endeavour is
to act on our determinations immediately.
Faith is another name for taking action.
Immeasurable good fortune accumulates in the lives of those
who have a sense of speed and urgency
in what they have set themselves out to do.

"When the skies are clear, the ground is illuminated. Similarly, when one knows the Lotus Sutra, one understands the meaning of all worldly affairs."
(The Object of Devotion for Observing the Mind Established in the Fifth Five-Hundred-Year Period after the Thus Come One's Passing - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 376)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"My mentor Josei Toda, second Soka Gakkai president, often said:
"'An invincible citadel cannot be constructed without steady, painstaking efforts. Today's Soka Gakkai was built by our meeting together in small groups, sharing and communicating with each other. And the way to usher in a new age of dynamic development is to welcome new sincere members and foster individuals of genuine faith
and commitment.'"
