-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Our younger Mens Division members are making
fresh and enthusiastic progress in every area.
I hope that each one of us can not only win in society
but can also shine brilliantly in our local communities!
Let's passionately engage ourselves, always burning with a courageous spirit!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"If in a single moment of life we exhaust the pains and trials of
millions of kalpas, then instant after instant there will arise in us
the three Buddha bodies with which we are eternally endowed.
Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is just such a 'diligent' practice."

(Ongi kuden - Gosho Zenshu, page 790, The Record of the Orally
Transmitted Teachings, page 214)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Selfless dedication is the essence of the Soka spirit of mentor and disciple.

"Always remember your original aspiration. Don't lose sight of your starting point. Strive for the sake of the SGI and your fellow members throughout your lives. That is the mark of a genuine disciple."
