Because my heart is one with my mentor, I fear nothing. I therefore fought on alone, undeterred. I fought through to the end. And I have triumphed. ​

As Mr Toda’s disciple, I alone have engraved all of his guidance and instructions deeply in my life. He said to me: “You will be the third president for your entire life. You are my one and only disciple who has inherited my spirit.”​

Because my heart is one with my mentor, I fear nothing. I therefore fought on alone, undeterred. I fought through to the end. And I have triumphed. ​

Now, thinking of the distant future, I am opening a path for you, my young successors. I am taking all manner of steps and measures. A true leader is always concerned with the welfare of young people. Because this is the spirit of the first three presidents.
