-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's carefully and kindly look after those members
who cannot make it to meetings 
for various different reasons.
Each and every one of us  
has a most important mission to fulfill for kosen-rufu.
Chanting daimoku based on this profound confidence,
let's patiently continue to inspire them 
with warm caring encouragement!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The realm of Buddhist faith and practice is a realm of unsurpassed sincerity and devotion.

"Fellow SGI members are always striving to do their best, day after day, with dedication and diligence, for their friends and their communities.

"I have the greatest trust in such hardworking, committed ordinary citizens. That is why it's important that we refuse to condone the behaviour of those who ridicule and harass such dedicated individuals.

"The SGI is a gathering of sincere individuals. That is what makes it strong and just. That's why it is vibrant, joyful, and cheerful. We have been able to build a network of peace encompassing 192 countries and territories around the world because we have striven wholeheartedly for the happiness of humankind and world peace.

"People of sincere commitment are the happiest—this is life's unchanging rule and my personal conclusion, having seen the way countless members have lived their lives."
