---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Warmly supporting and wholeheartedly encouraging members, irrespective of the problems they were facing, my mentor, second Soka Gakkai president Josei Toda, said: 'No matter what happens in your lives, please regard it as a treasure that strengthens your faith. The bigger the karmic obstacles you face, the greater the mission you have to help many others who are suffering, and the greater the strength you will be able to bring forth. Through the power of the Mystic Law, you can positively transform any environment!'

"True to those words, our members have powerfully demonstrated the revitalisation attained through challenging themselves in their human revolution and thereby paving the way for a peaceful and prosperous society by spreading the Daishonin's ideal of 'establishing the correct teaching for the peace of the land.'"
