-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The glorious sun of hope 
rises on the horizon in Kanagawa.*
From the port of "justice" 
and "shared commitment" for kosen rufu,
let's ring out loud the morning bell 
heralding Soka Victory!

* Kanagawa is the neighbouring prefecture to Tokyo, just south of the capital.

 --- DAILY GOSHO ---
"One day of life is more valuable than all the treasures of the major world system, so first you must muster sincere faith."

(On Prolonging One's Life Span 
- WND, Vol. 1, page 955)
Selection Source: 
SGI President Ikeda's guidance, 
Seikyo Shinbun, March 6th, 2019

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Attaining Buddhahood in this lifetime and realising kosen-rufu are both eternally a great struggle between the Buddha and devilish functions. As the true disciples of Nichiren Daishonin, we have been born in this corrupt and evil age of the Latter Day based on our vow to triumph in that struggle. Our admirable members have continually shown proof of absolute victory in their personal challenges in life, and in their efforts to actualise the Daishonin's ideal of 'establishing the correct teaching for the peace of the land.'

"That is why the Soka Gakkai has been able to achieve such phenomenal development and grow into a truly global religious movement."

40th Soka Gakkai Headquarters Leaders Meeting, Message January 12th 2019, Showing Proof of the Victory of Buddhism, Seikyo Shinbun January 13th, 2019, Translation released February 2019.
