-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Through our efforts to engage
in conversation with others
one by one
and gain each other's
understanding,
we can firmly be united.
Aiming towards realizing
our great vow for kosen-rufu,
let's advance with the spirit of
many in body, one in mind.

"Though he himself is like the wisteria vine, because he clings to the pine that is the Lotus Sutra, he is able to ascend the mountain of perfect enlightenment. Because he has the wings of the single vehicle to rely upon, he can soar into the sky of Tranquil Light."

"The lives of those awakened to the bodhisattva vow to help others become happy, brim with unsurpassed joy. The image of 'dancing' symbolises this irrepressible and unbounded vibrant energy. When we base our lives on the bodhisattva vow, we can transform great evil into great good. The Daishonin teaches us that when we awaken to our true identity and power as Bodhisattvas of the Earth, we have nothing to lament."
The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating The World, [66] The Journey of Mentor and Disciple for Worldwide Kosen-rufu—Creating a Global Network for Peace, The Great Joy of Encountering the Teaching for Attaining Buddhahood, from the October 2020 issue of the Daibyakurenge - the Soka Gakkai's monthly study journal, translation released July 2021
