let's keep our challenging spirit burning,
and today, yet again,

"In the more than two thousand years that have passed since the Buddha's advent, Shakyamuni himself, Tien-t'ai, and Dengyo were the only three who perfectly carried out the Buddha's teachings. Now in the Latter Day of the Law, Nichiren and his disciples and lay believers are just such practitioners."

"The Daishonin states: 'When one who is able to show clearly visible proof in the present expounds the Lotus Sutra, there also will be persons who will [come to] believe [in the sutra]' (WND–1, 512). Mr. Makiguchi noted that one of the unique things about the faith experiences of Soka Gakkai members is that members not only strive to accumulate experiences of the benefit of faith themselves, but actively seek to tell as many people as possible about them. The truth is powerful. The experiences of our members around the world are lasting treasures of the Soka Gakkai and a driving force for spreading the Mystic Law."
