-- TO MY FRIENDS --
All of our dedicated, painstaking efforts for the sake of
kosen-rufu are the most valuable treasures that we could
possibly accumulate in our lives.
To all of our youth,
put forth your greatest effort to develop a self
that is as indestructible as a diamond
and earnestly strive to create a glorious history!

"Tolstoy was also well versed with Buddhism. He was particularly impressed
by the fact that Shakyamuni Buddha went out into the world, travelling
widely and talking with countless people in order to spread his teaching of
peace and justice, undeterred by the persecution and opposition he
encountered along the way.
"Everything begins with this spirit to go out and take action. Never hide
behind others and try to get by without taking any personal initiative. Go
out into the world, into society, and speak out boldly for what is right."
