-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Nothing great is achieved
in just one single day.
From what we are able to do right now,
let's continue to challenge
(whatever it is we are challenging),
one step at a time,
never ever thinking of giving up!
Then consequently a result
is absolutely certain to follow.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The tradition behind discussion meetings is the noble fighting spirit that originates from the Daishonin and was carried on by both Mr. Makiguchi and Mr. Toda. Every discussion meeting, brimming with that spirit and conducted with positive energy and joy, is tremendously significant.
"Through discussion meetings, we are blazing a sure and steady trail through the uncharted wilderness of our times towards happiness for all humanity. Through our great discussion meeting movement, let us vibrantly spread the strength and optimism to win in life to our friends and others around us."
