-- TO MY FRIENDS --
People of exceptional strength and ability
are people who are capable of overcoming their own weaknesses.
They are people who unremittingly pursue the paths
they have chosen in life, without ever giving up.
Let's all become valiant champions of faith!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Buddhism is originally a teaching of inner, personal transformation. Enabling people to discover and reveal their full inherent potential is the essence of the humanistic spirit of Buddhism. This is reflected in the Lotus Sutra, which teaches that each individual possesses the potential for Buddhahood, and that the lives of all people are infinitely respectworthy and precious."
