-- TO MY FRIENDS --
It is certain and clear that the Buddhas of the three
existences are admiring and praising all of those
trailblazers who are striving so hard to pave the path to
accomplish worldwide kosen-rufu.
Let us all advance together by learning carefully and sincerely
from these great noble seeking spirited SGI members.
*Some 250 SGI members from 60 different countries and
territories from all over the world are here in Japan for the fall
SGI course.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Life, in one sense, is a constant battle against deadlock. As long as we are alive, as long as we continue challenging ourselves, we are bound to come up against difficult obstacles that block our way forwards. If life were all smooth sailing, if we never encountered setbacks, that itself would be a sign of stagnation."
SGI Newsletter No. 7883, LEARNING FROM THE WRITINGS OF NICHIREN DAISHONIN: THE TEACHINGS FOR VICTORY. [9] 'The Supremacy of the Law'--Part 3 [of 3]. Faith That Grows Stronger Is the Key to Eternal Victory, from the Sep. 2009 issue of the Daibyakurenge, translated Nov. 6th, 2009.
