When it comes to encouraging someone in need,
responding speedily is vital.
Acting with lightning speed

and wholeheartedly fill them with courage and hope!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"While making the sound of Nam-myoho-renge-kyo—the Mystic Law, which has the power to revitalise all things—resound far and wide, let us strengthen a cycle of humanity that no cycle of violence can vanquish, and open up a vast ocean of peace and harmonious coexistence for all people on our planet.

"While making the sound of Nam-myoho-renge-kyo—the Mystic Law, which has the power to revitalise all things—resound far and wide, let us strengthen a cycle of humanity that no cycle of violence can vanquish, and open up a vast ocean of peace and harmonious coexistence for all people on our planet.
"While continuing our tireless efforts in dialogue based on respect for others, valuing each and every individual, let us also further tap our inner wisdom and power to overcome the fundamental sufferings of the human condition—birth, ageing, sickness, and death.
"And while, above all, warmly supporting and encouraging our young people, whose determination never to be defeated is so heartening, let us continue working to elevate the life state of humankind to the highest summit of lasting happiness, hope, and harmony—a life state imbued with the four noble virtues of eternity, happiness, true self, and purity."
