-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
Let's express our appreciation, 
from the bottom of our hearts,
for all the hard work and sweat 
of our 'uncrowned heroes and heroines'
who selflessly dedicate themselves 
to delivering our SGI publications!
We're sincerely chanting 
for the good health 
and absolute safety of you all.
With the Seikyo Shinbun 
and all our other SGI publications,
which are the wellspring of people's hope,
let's strive together to create value!

The important thing, therefore, is that we stand up with a lofty purpose in our hearts, unswayed by our short-term circumstances."
