-- TO MY FRIENDS --

Let's pay careful attention 

to the greetings we give 

in the morning.

Greetings in a refreshing voice, 

with a bright smile

are most certain to invigorate 

both the people around us 

and ourselves.

Brimming with strong life force,

today again let's advance 

vigorously and cheerfully!

"More valuable than treasures in a storehouse are the treasures of the body, and the treasures of the heart are the most valuable of all."

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----

"Nichiren Daishonin writes: 'Like Mount Sumeru, which rises up out of the great Earth, and never sways, one whose presence pervades the realms of heaven, earth and humanity, and who does not waver in the slightest is called the ruler [or a king or champion]' (WND–1, 1063).

"The first three Soka Gakkai presidents – united by the bonds of mentor and disciple, sharing the great vow for kosen-rufu, and directly connected to Nichiren Daishonin – have remained unswayed by even the fiercest storms like the Himalaya Mountains that rise from the earth and soar high into the heavens. 

"When we forge in our hearts an unshakeable mountain of mentor and disciple, committed to truth and justice, we will not fear or be swayed by anything. We will be able to bring forth the invincible power of the oneness of mentor and disciple." 

13th Headquarters Leaders Meeting, May 3rd, 2023, Making a Fresh Start towards a Spring of peace for All Humanity, translation released May 7th, 2023
