-- TO MY FRIENDS --
In the continuing intense heat like now,
we need to frequently give our bodies adequate
fluid and salt replacement to prevent heat stroke.
Let's take very good care of our health,
first and foremost,
and make a fresh new start!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
President Ikeda: The doctor said I probably wouldn't live to the age of 30. That's why I gave my all each day so that I would have no regrets if it were my last.
Mr. Toda was very concerned about my physical condition. Once he chanted with me before the Gohonzon at the Soka Gakkai Headquarters, having told me sternly: "Your life force is weak. If your life force is weak, you'll be defeated in your struggles." He was a truly caring mentor. I fought with everything I had to respond to his expectations.
