-- TO MY FRIENDS --
To all of our Seikyo newspaper and SGI publication deliverers and packers,
those members who are in charge of subscriptions,
and everyone else who is constantly supporting our publications,
may we express our utmost appreciation and respect for all your efforts!
Every step you take is such a noble and invaluable one
and that in itself is a victorious history of our kosen-rufu activities.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Shakyamuni taught that the shallow is easy to embrace, but the profound is difficult. To discard the shallow and seek the profound is the way of a person of courage."

(On Repaying Debts of Gratitude - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Volume 1, page 712) Selection source: Kyo no Hosshin, Seikyo Shimbun, October 20th, 2012

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Unity is strength. We must unite in order to win.

"How can we achieve unity? First, leaders themselves have to stand up as individuals. It's not up to others; we ourselves have to stand up resolutely.

"...Merely calling out for unity doesn't unite people's hearts. Leaders need to earnestly chant daimoku and wholeheartedly praise their fellow members. Joyful unity for victory will be achieved when you respect your fellow members and appreciate your good fortune in being able to work together with them for kosen-rufu."

SGI Newsletter No. 8650, Humanistic Teachings for Victory, (6) Unity Is a Powerful Force for Victory, Standing Up Resolutely. From 18th April 18, 2012, issue of the Soka Shimpo, the Soka Gakkai youth division's fortnightly newspaper, translated 15th Oct. 2012
