-- TO MY FRIENDS --
My deepest appreciation and gratitude
to all our noble fellow-members across Japan and throughout the world!
Preparing ourselves towards the year of "The Complete Victory of Soka"*
let's together strive, to the best of our ability, each day,
to create memories that will adorn the golden diary of mentor and disciple!
* 2010 is designated SGI's Year of "The Complete Victory of Soka and the Dynamic Development of Youth."

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"All disciples and lay supporters of Nichiren should chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo with the spirit of many in body but one in mind, transcending all differences among themselves to become as inseparable as fish and the water in which they swim."
(The Heritage of the Ultimate Law of Life - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 217)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The efforts of our members to continuously reach out and meet others is what has made our organisation strong.
"We uphold the Gohonzon and are working to spread the supreme teaching of Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism for the sake of peace and human happiness. Nothing intimidates us. Our encounters with people lead to changing the world. They open a path to protecting the people. Let's continue to boldly and confidently share with others our philosophy of hope--our philosophy of human revolution."
