-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Our smile is the key to opening up
other people's hearts.
Let's greet everyone
Let's greet everyone
we share a connection with,
with a warm bright smile.
Just like a sunflower that
grows and blooms
towards the sun
with all its might!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
" The SGI has always been a movement committed to empowerment — of the people, by the people and for the people — and through a process we describe as human revolution. The essence of empowerment is to fully unleash the power and the boundless potential inherent in every human being based on the Buddhist understanding that our own happiness is inextricably linked to the happiness of others.
"It is our belief that through active engagement with others and the process of mutual support and encouragement, individual peace and happiness will be realised and the foundations for world peace will be further solidified."
