-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's all work together towards helping and encouraging 
our new members to develop their faith!
It's the positive connections we make with others
that brings about dramatic transformations in our lives.
Let's build a beautiful garden filled with people
who are able to achieve various different things!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"If a person cannot manage to cross a moat ten feet wide, how can they cross one that is a hundred or two hundred feet?"

("The Actions of the Votary of the Lotus Sutra", page 766)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The first step in faith is being aware that obstacles will arise when we exert ourselves in our Buddhist practice.

"It is by teaching new members not only to share the Mystic Law with others, but to be prepared for inevitable obstacles, that the Soka Gakkai has built a solid foundation as an organisation dedicated to kosen-rufu."

SGI Newsletter No. 9476, Justice 56, translation released 26th Oct., 2016
