"Thanks to everyone’s tireless efforts, the Soka Gakkai has grown tremendously and become an organisation with great social responsibility. Naturally, as a result, our movement will undergo significant changes. This itself is proof that the Soka Gakkai is a living religion evolving with the people and the times.
“For instance, if we were to liken the Soka Gakkai in the early days to a motorboat, then today, it’s like a large tanker. If a tanker were to speed through a harbour, it would create massive waves that violently rock the smaller boats. It stands to reason that it has to move calmly and with utmost care, always mindful of those around it. Therefore, in our haste to advance, we mustn’t ignore social norms. I hope our organisation will respect its social responsibility more than any other group. I ask the same of all of you. This is fundamental in considering the Soka Gakkai’s long-term future direction.
“Additionally, it will become increasingly important for members to strengthen their families, solidify their personal foundations, and lay down deep roots of trust within their communities.”
