---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"As the Indian Gandhian scholar Dr. N. Radhakrishnan has noted: 'There is no growth without struggle. Only when we face trying adversities can we show our true strength. Courageous people never stop advancing. A life dedicated to the Soka path of mentor and disciple is a perfect testament of this.'"
