-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Buddhism expounds the principle of
"cherry, plum, peach, the damson"*.
where every person develops
in their own way at a different pace,
and possesses the potential for making
their own unique "flower" bloom.
Therefore, let's strive to cheerfully
encourage and help others
to develop their strengths and potential!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"To this day, my feelings have not changed in the slightest. No matter what anyone might say, each of you is a precious member with a great mission for kosen-rufu. Each of you is a noble individual with a circle of friends that only you can connect to Buddhism….. I am praying with the hope that you will stand up and take action for kosen-rufu without fail."
