-- TO MY FRIENDS --
When we are talking with others,
the most important things to do are:
listen carefully to what they have to say,
show respect for them,
and try to learn from them.
Come, let's cultivate numerous good friendships!

"There are not two lands, pure or impure in themselves. The difference lies solely in the good or evil of our minds."

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Our members all have different kinds of jobs and schedules, which may make it difficult for everyone to get together. Leaders mustn't exhaust members by insisting that they all gather together at some set time and place.
"As leaders, your role is to support your fellow members and help guide them to happiness. Please continue to make efforts to visit each member individually. Home visits and personal guidance are the basis of SGI activities. I hope you will also take the lead in sharing Nichiren Buddhism with others.
"Let's energetically go out to meet and support our friends again today!"
