-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Members of the young men's and women's student divisions,
pursue knowledge in the world around you
and seek out opportunities to apply what you have learnt
starting with where your feet are right now!
Soar up into the great sky of society
as leaders who wield the great sword of courage and compassion.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Exert yourself in the two ways of practice and study. Without practice and study, there can be no Buddhism. You must not only persevere yourself; you must also teach others. Both practice and study arise from faith. Teach others to the best of your ability, even if it is only a single sentence or phrase."

(The True Aspect of All Phenomena - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 386)
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, November 10th, 2011

SGI Newsletter No. 8371, The New Human Revolution––Vol. 25: Chap. 1, Light of Happiness 15, translated Nov. 7th, 2011
