-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Buddhist study in the SGI 
has always been 
'practise-orientated study'
and will always be this way, 
with great pride.
The Daishonin states,
"You must not only persevere yourself; 
you must also teach others."*
Consistently, let's exert ourselves 
in the two ways of 
practice and study!

*"Exert yourself in the two ways of practice and study. Without practice and study, there can be no Buddhism. You must not only persevere yourself; you must also teach others. Both practice and study arise from faith. Teach others to the best of your ability, even if it is only a single sentence or phrase." 
- "The True Aspect of All Phenomena" 
(WND, Vol. 1, page 386)

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Now, no matter what, strive in faith and be known as a votary of the Lotus Sutra, and remain my disciple for the rest of your life. If you are of the same mind as Nichiren, you must be a Bodhisattva of the Earth."

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"It's important to embrace with an open heart those who have stopped practising and left the Soka Gakkai. Rather than severing ties with them, I hope you will have the genoristy to say : 'We're still friends, so if you have any problems, I'm always here for you.'"
