-- TO MY FRIENDS --
It's words of encouragement that unleash the inner strength
and potential of both ourselves and others, ten thousand fold.
Let us always try to encourage people with words
that give them courage and conviction.
Let's become leaders of great sincerity
who always chant with and take action with our fellow members.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Although I and my disciples may encounter various difficulties, if we do not harbour doubts in our hearts, we will as a matter of course attain Buddhahood. Do not have doubts simply because heaven does not lend you protection. Do not be discouraged because you do not enjoy an easy and secure existence in this life."
(The Opening of the Eyes - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 283)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Kosen-rufu and Buddhist practice take place on the front lines of the organisation.
"The Soka Gakkai is a place for humanistic education, teaching people how to polish and elevate themselves, live in a genuinely humane way, and work for the good of society.
"Second Soka Gakkai president Josei Toda thought of the Soka Gakkai as a university without a campus, and as such we could consider the front lines of our organisation as the classrooms and study halls of that university."
