-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
With a fresh new spirit towards 
our vow for May 3rd,*
let's all advance,
brimming with the vibrant life force 
that we have been endowed with 
since the infinite past,
in order to win 
  in our own lives,
our fellow members' in their lives,
and aiming towards the victory 
  of the shared struggle 
   of mentor and disciple!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Encouragement in the realm of Soka means shining the light of the Mystic Law on each person, awakening their inherent Buddhahood and revitalising their lives at the most fundamental level.

"As members of the Soka family, we have always reached out to support those around us, no matter how deep their sorrow, how great their despair or how challenging their karma. We have stood together with them, encouraging them to be confident that they can surmount any hardship, find a way forwards and become happy without fail."

The Wisdom for Creating Happiness and Peace, Preface - Let Us Encourage Each other and Advance Together, Daibyaku Renge April 2014-February 2018, translation released April 2021.
