-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The Daishonin encourages us to 
"Employ the strategy 
of the Lotus Sutra before any other."*
Chanting daimoku 
with an unwavering vow for 
  kosen-rufu 
unleashes boundless wisdom 
and brings forth abundant life force!
Let's summon up 
 indomitable courage 
   and advance onwards!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"If the minds of living beings are impure, their land is also impure, but if their minds are pure, so is their land. There are not two lands, pure or impure in themselves. The difference lies solely in the good or evil of our minds."

(On Attaining Buddhahood 
         in This Lifetime 
- WND, Vol. 1, page 4)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Mr. Toda declared that the Soka Gakkai's mission is to formulate a grand vision for peace for future millennia and pave the way for the happiness of humanity for eternity, thereby repaying our debt of gratitude to Nichiren Daishonin.

"With our gaze on that distant future, let's chant even more strongly for the safety and security of the entire global family and continue to solidify and wisely expand our beautiful grassroots network for peace."
