-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The wisdom and knowledge needed for success
can be found in the very heart of SGI activities.
I hope that leaders will always joyfully participate in activities,
actively participating in the midst of our fellow members,
and giving full voice to members feedback and ideas!

"Suffer what there is to suffer, enjoy what there is to enjoy. Regard both suffering and joy as facts of life, and continue chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, no matter what happens."
(Happiness in This World

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Empty resolutions and flowery rhetoric will not truly strike a chord in people's hearts. And even if people do take you at your word at first, if you don't mean what you say, they'll stop believing you.
"The important thing is to honestly share your convictions and follow through on the promises you make, no matter how small. These, I believe, are essential qualities for a leader."
