-- TO MY FRIENDS --
To our friends who are struggling with hardships,
never be defeated, no matter what the situation!
It's the difficulties we now face
that offer us the opportunity
to propel our lives forwards.
By strengthening our faith
with resolute and unyielding determination,
let's surmount the obstacles and hardships
in front of us!

"Great evil portends the arrival of great good. If all of Jambudvipa were to be thrown into chaos, there could be no doubt that [this sutra would] 'be widely propagated throughout Jambudvipa.'"
("The Kalpa of Decrease", WND-1 page 1122)

"All of the experiences and accomplishments you've had until now will have no meaning if you don't use them to help others. Those who fought so hard in the early days of our movement have a responsibility to pass on to the next generation what they have learnt and gained through their practice.
"We can only fulfil our mission in life by striving until the very end. Please be eternally youthful and continue to challenge and develop yourself. I will do the same!"
