-- TO MY FRIENDS --
It's important that we really treasure
the people living in our neighbourhood.
The first step to making good friends with the neighbours
is a good clear cheerful greeting.
Let's always be trying to earn the trust
and respect of the people around us,
starting with our immediate surroundings.
Let's be winners through acting positively
and having good healthy interactions with others!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"When the bodhisattva Never Disparaging makes his bow of obeisance to the four kinds of believers, the Buddha nature inherent in the four kinds of believers of overbearing arrogance is bowing in obeisance to the bodhisattva Never Disparaging. It is like the situation when one faces a mirror and makes a bow of obeisance: the image in the mirror likewise makes a bow of obeisance to oneself."
(Ongi kuden - Gosho Zenshu, page 769, The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings, page 165)
