-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Buddhism is about the present and the future.
Every single day is a fresh new departure.
Each and every day is a challenge.
It is vital, therefore, that we always,
and forever, continue to advance.
The real challenge is what lies ahead!

Now, aiming towards 'May 3rd,'*
let's all make one dynamic stride forwards
with the courage of a lion king!
Let's enthusiastically meet with friends and
may dialogue flourish everywhere.
