-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's do our very best
to warmly and wholeheartedly encourage
the young people in our local community!
When we make an effort to foster and develop
the talents and abilities of young people
we can witness the flourishing
of fresh new power and growth.
Let's build a brand new era
where our youth, our successors,
can shine brilliantly!

"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."
(The Three Kinds of Treasure
- WND, Vol. I, page 851)
