It is certain that those who are devoting themselves
for the sake of kosen-rufu behind the scenes
will shine brilliantly and be adorned
with the great benefits of the Mystic Law.

"The key to creating a new era is action.
"Ultimately, the Buddhism of the sun is found in efforts to encourage and revitalise all those who are suffering, whatever the time or wherever the place.
"'The Supernatural Powers of the Thus Come One' (21st) chapter of the Lotus Sutra describes the conduct of Bodhisattva Superior Practices and the other Bodhisattvas of the Earth as follows:
"'As the light of the sun and moon
can banish all obscurity and gloom,
so this person as he advances through the world
can wipe out the darkness of living beings.' (LSOC21, 318)
"Both Mr. Makiguchi and Mr. Toda found great meaning in this passage.
"'As the light of the sun and moon
can banish all obscurity and gloom,
so this person as he advances through the world
can wipe out the darkness of living beings.' (LSOC21, 318)
"Both Mr. Makiguchi and Mr. Toda found great meaning in this passage.
"'Advances through the world' (LSOC21, 318) means to walk the land, to be active in society. The Bodhisattvas of the Earth are active in the real world, building relationships with one individual after another, dispelling the darkness of suffering, and imparting the strength to live and the light of the joy of living."
