-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Whether we have "strong and steadfast faith" or not
Is proven when we have to struggle with hardship.
At that crucial moment,
let's try to have a determined resolute stand-alone spirit
and be indeed a genuinely courageous person!

"The heart of the Buddha's lifetime of teachings is the Lotus Sutra, and the heart of the practice of the Lotus Sutra is found in the 'Never Disparaging' chapter. What does Bodhisattva Never Disparaging's profound respect for people signify? The purpose of the appearance in this world of Shakyamuni Buddha, the lord of teachings, lies in his behaviour as a human being."
