-- TO MY FRIENDS --
When we encourage someone 
from the depths of our beings,
we ourselves feel strong and uplifted.
"'Joy' means that oneself 
and others together experience joy."*
Let's share the great joy 
of actively practicing in the SGI
with that friend 
and that fellow member. 

*The Benefits of Responding with Joy chapter - OTT, page 146
