---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"You are suns that shine and illuminate others with happiness. You are lighthouses that guide people to attaining Buddhahood. You are the solid central pillars of good fortune and benefit that bring happiness to your families. Those who have formed a connection with Buddhism will eventually come to accept and practise it. Please live your lives in a cheerful, positive manner, embracing everyone around you with an open heart and broad-minded humanity."
