-- TO MY FRIENDS --
There is nothing that inspires people more
than our own personal experiences.
It's the positive effects you yourself have experienced from this practise
that hits home best with others!
Let's share our enthusiasm for this practise
with as many friends as we possibly can.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"My mentor, second Soka Gakkai president Josei Toda, said: 'Let's actively invite new people to our discussion meetings. That will become the starting point for fresh victory in their lives.

"Practitioners joyfully sharing experiences of the benefit they have gained, inspiring each other with accounts of the greatness of faith, is proof of a living religion.'"

SGI Newsletter No. 8704, Forging Ahead Joyfully and Harmoniously from Our Discussion Meetings, from the February 2013 issue of Daibyakurenge, the Soka Gakkai monthly study journal, translated 17th Jan., 2013
