---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Over the past year, our Soka family, with the unsurpassed teamwork of 'many in body, one in mind,' has again forged ahead dynamically in sharing Nichiren Buddhism with many others.

"Mahatma Gandhi (1869–1948) observed: 'Work done wholeheartedly gives contentment and peace.'[1]

"I would like to bestow a jewelled crown of gratitude on each of our noble members who, while struggling with their own problems and challenges, continue to make tireless, dedicated efforts behind the scenes for the sake of Buddhism, the happiness of others, and the welfare of society."
