-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Society changes quickly.
Don't get caught up in
formality or conventional ways,
try to stay flexible and open minded
about new ideas and thinking!
Let's be the instigators of a new era
by continually learning about new things
and having fresh ideas!

"If only you chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, then what offence could fail to be eradicated? What blessing could fail to come? This is the truth and it is of great profundity. You should believe and accept it."

- WND Vol. I, page 130)
