To My Friends

Tuesday, August 28

It is very important that young people strive hard
to cultivate character as a human being.
By establishing unshakable confidence that
you are one of the "noble common people",
challenge yourself to achieve "world class excellence" in every endeavor.

Each day, Sensei's daily poem "To My Friends" appears in the Soka Gakkai newspaper, the Seikyo Shimbun. To subscribe to a daily English translation, send an e-mail here.

"Arouse deep faith, and diligently polish your mirror day and night. How should you polish it? Only by chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo."
