-- TO MY FRIENDS --
True encouragement
is when you help to awaken
in another person
the desire for they themselves
to challenge their circumstances.
By chanting and taking action together
let's all scale those mountains of suffering.

"Though I may be a person of little ability, I have reverently given myself to the study of the Mahayana. 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."
(On Establishing the Correct Teaching
for the Peace of the Land
- WND, Vol. I, page 17)
