* Just to forewarn you in the next few days to come some of us will be moving about the world for "vacations," at that time we may not be near any Wi-fi access so if there are delays of more than 24 or even 48 hours PLEASE wait before sending a mail asking what has happened! We will continue, but just a bit behind! This situation may occur on several occasions throughout especially late July and mid August. All the very best! A translation of President Ikeda's "To My Friends" published in the Seikyo Shimbun and more. Sunday, July 19th, 2015 --- TO MY FRIENDS --- Small gatherings are the very source of great development.
