--TO MY FRIENDS--
The busier we become,
the more important it is for us
to chant first and foremost!
Those who chant daimoku,
no matter what happens,
never face deadlock.
By bringing forth
the great strength of our faith,
let's leap forwards!

"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."
