A single disciple who truly strives with the same heart as the mentor can galvanize everyone. I fought furiously as that one true disciple. I supported my mentor, broadened the great struggle for kosen-rufu, and opened the path to victory. I led the way to achieving Mr Toda’s cherished goal of 750,000 member households during his lifetime. I realized all of his visions for promoting peace, culture, and education, and spread the great philosophy and ideals of our movement throughout the world. The disciple who “cast off the transient and revealed the true” just as his mentor instructed built today’s flourishing Soka Gakkai. ​

 “He’s a man who always achieves what he says he will”—this was Mr Toda’s evaluation of me, and it is one of my greatest honors. ”​
