"Nichiren Daishonin states: "The Lion King is said to advance three steps, then gather himself to spring, unleashing the same power whether he traps a tiny ant or attacks a fierce animal" (WND–1, 412).
"Lions are strong because they unleash their full power in every situation. And lion cubs grow strong by doing the same. Those who exert themselves in this way win in the end."
