-- TO MY FRIENDS --

It's important that those 

who are in leadership positions

earnestly do their best to  

prepare for each and every meeting.

Always making sure 

the scheduled finishing time 

is always adhered to,

let's widely expand our circle of joy 

such that all the participants feel 

"I'm really glad I attended this meeting!"

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----

"Since we practice Buddhism to become happy, applying ourselves to Soka Gakkai activities with energy and joy is essential. To do so, we must remember that faith isn't an obligation but a right. Joy comes from being proactive, not passive, in our efforts.

"Our energy and joy differ completely depending on whether we act only at the urging of others or decide on our own, 'Okay, let's do this.' Those who find their daily Soka Gakkai activities enjoyable are those who take the initiative. That's faith."

The New Human Revolution, Vol.28, Great Path 59, translation released June 2023.
