---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"As Mr. Toda so stirringly declared, the Soka Gakkai has a great purpose. It has a great philosophy. Both of these are absolutely unshakable.
"That is why the Soka Gakkai has continued to grow and develop as it has, outpacing all other organisations.
"Society is as changeable as the weather. It is a swirling morass of self-interest, vanity, and negativity. Let us look down on all of that with calm, unperturbed dignity as we open a new age for the people, the world, and all humankind. Let us keep advancing boldly on the great path of Soka.
"With infinite hope in our hearts, let's forge ahead with lively energy and bright optimism."
