-- TO MY FRIENDS --
To all of our chapter Men's and Women's Division leaders
(and all other leaders who are similarly responsible for looking after SGI members),
you all carry such profound missions.
Please become like the sunshine for your fellow members by
always giving your utmost when encouraging them.
"I entrust you with the propagation of Buddhism in your
province."*

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
'Mr. Toda keenly observed: 'Rejoice when you encounter hardships. That's when you
need to stand firm in faith and challenge yourself. It's an opportunity to grow.
Through overcoming such trials, you can attain boundless, everlasting good fortune.'
Sincere people of steadfast commitment shine brilliantly in the end. Arrogant
opportunists, on the other hand, never endure for long--this is one of history's
eternal lessons."
