"A blue fly, if it clings to the tail of a thoroughbred horse, can travel ten thousand miles, and the green ivy that twines around the tall pine can grow to a thousand feet."

"Mr. Toda said: 'Those who carry out the practice of propagation are emissaries who have been dispatched by Nichiren Daishonin, the Buddha of the Latter Day of the Law, and are acting as his representatives. Their everyday lives are in synch with him, enabling them to draw forth incredible life force and overcome any difficulty. Their expressions will always be vibrant and their bodies will brim with health and vitality.'

"That is certainly true. The Lotus Sutra teaches the true aspect of all phenomena. The reality of one's life manifests itself in one's present form.
"Those making positive efforts for kosen-rufu are energetic and accumulate good fortune."
