The vibrant heart-to-heart interaction we share is a truly wonderful source of vitality for living long, healthy, and fulfilling lives.The Soka Gakkai is an unsurpassed haven of eternity, happiness, true self, and purity.

Mr. Toda remarked: “Outwardly, we might look like a ‘Bodhisattva Poverty’ or ‘Bodhisattva Sickness,’ but that is merely a role we’re playing in the drama of life.
