-- TO MY FRIENDS --
When we dedicate our lives to supporting our fellow members
our own life begins to pulsate with vigour and vitality
and we are protected by the protective forces of the universe.
Let's become the kind of compassionate "leaders"
who can make members feel comfortable and at ease
and at the same time inspire them with boundless hope!
