-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's go first and foremost 
to the place where people 
are facing severe difficulty!
That is the action of a true "leader."
The humanism of Soka 
shines its most brilliant
when we take swift action.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"The heavenly gods and benevolent deities will assume various forms such as those of men and women, and present offerings to help the persons who practice the Lotus Sutra."

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"My mentor, second Soka Gakkai President Josei Toda, once said: 'Being a Buddha means having a life state where, in the depths of your life, you have complete confidence that everything will be fine, come what may.'

"By believing in our infinite potential and continuing to chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, the vibrant life state of Buddhahood will search forth from within, enabling us to transform any adversity and move things in a positive direction. Regardless of what happens along the way, we are sure to attain victory in the end."

Building a Bright Future Based on Our Vow, [13] The Lay Nun Ueno, Nanjo Tokimitsu's Mother, Your Heart Determines the Youth You Lead, from 1st April, 2019 issue of the Mirai (Future) Journal, translation released August 2020
