Our joyful and victorious advancement depends on
our leaders' careful and well thought out plans.
With the type of leadership that inspires
everyone to take courageous action,
let's develop the best organisation of faith and practice!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"When you shake your head, your hair sways; when your mind begins to work, your body moves. When a strong wind blows, the grass and trees can no longer remain still; when the earth shakes, the seas are atremble. Thus if one can move Shakyamuni Buddha, the lord of teachings, can the grass and trees fail to respond, can the waters remain calm?"
(Concerning the Statue of Shakyamuni Buddha Fashioned by Nichigen-nyo - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol. 2, page 811) Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, August 19th, 2013
August 19th-25th, 2013
---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
It's through fostering capable individuals
that we can create a new era
and subsequently establish true peace.
Let's all do our utmost
to support the growth of our Future Division members
(primary and secondary school students).
The SGI must always try to excel at being a great arena
for helping people to cultivate and reveal their full potential.
