The World Peace Gongyo Meeting ( September 3, 2006)
Yasunori Takimoto
(SGI Vice President)
Good morning everyone!
I would like to wholeheartedly thank all of you for participating in today's
September World Peace Gongyo Meeting coming early in the morning and traveling
from far-away places to attend, thank you so much again!
Together with all of you, I have prayed for world peace and the greater happiness of everyone.
September is a month of dynamic advancement in which we should cheerfully aim for victory like taking flight to the sky.
Accordingly, let's gain boundless good fortune together by striving to
chant powerful daimoku in high spirits and doing our utmost in the practice
of shakubuku in which we guide troubled people to supreme happiness.
Now, I would delightedly like to share some excerpts from the "Dance
of Rainbow" chapter of The New Human Revolution serialized in the
Seikyo Shimbun dated September 1 that has just been restarted.
At the very beginning of the chapter, Sensei has poetically praised human life in each of us by saying:
"How noble, how strong and how beautiful human beings are!"
Sensei has also appealed to us:
"Human beings should shine like the sun! The radiance of such life should
be shown. Let us
cheerfully build a rainbow of happiness and peace by breaking through the
clouds of sufferings.
That is our great movement of human revolution."
For the sake of making all people happy and establishing world peace, let's
steadily promote the great movement of human revolution from the people
closest to us in great joy and with faith as our foundation together General
Director Niitsu and Women's Division Chief, Mrs. Shibata in SGI Philippines.
