Daisaku Ikeda
August 5, 2023
An old adage goes,
“Adversity makes a person wise.”
The greater the troubles and hardships
you face, the greater the growth
you will achieve by surmounting them.
Oh, young successors,
aim for the peak of challenges
with an indomitable spirit!
Tentative translation of “To My Friends” published in the Seikyo Shimbun, based on President Ikeda’s recent guidance.
