-- TO MY FRIENDS --

To actualise 

"a peaceful, 

happy and harmonious family"

is the eternal principle of the SGI.

Bound by the trust and love

between 

our closest family members,

let's expand and develop 

our garden of happiness!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---

Even though you chant and believe in Myoho-renge-kyo, if you think the Law is outside yourself, you are embracing not the Mystic Law but an inferior teaching.

(On Attaining Buddhahood 

in This Lifetime

- WND-1, page 3)
