"'The fact that the two of you are one in mind may be likened to the two wheels of a carriage, or the two wings of a bird.'
- From "Brothers One in Mind" (WND-2, 914).
"Unity is strength. Where there is unity, there is development and vibrant growth. The solidarity of our SGI members—diverse individuals joined together in a shared purpose—is the key to achieving kosen-rufu.
"When we of the SGI, Bodhisattvas of the Earth, strive to spread the cause of good throughout the world, supporting one another, the power of the Mystic Law will manifest limitlessly. And we will also succeed in fulfilling our vow to realise Nichiren Daishonin's ideal of "establishing the correct teaching for the peace of the land."
"'Many in body, one in mind' is now a motto of SGI members around the globe. Let's work together in joy and harmony to triumphantly expand our network of happiness and peace.
