-- TO MY FRIENDS --
There's no reason to compare

"I will move forwards even
"I will move forwards even
if it's just a millimeter

"Thus you should understand that so long as a practitioner of the Lotus Sutra remains unwavering in faith, free of all false alliances, entrusting themselves wholeheartedly to the Lotus Sutra and practising in accordance with the Buddha's golden words, they will without fail be able to prevent disaster and prolong their life in this present existence, to say nothing of in the life to come. Splendid recompense will be theirs, and they will fulfil their great vow to broadly proclaim and propagate the Lotus Sutra."

"When we strive with united faith, we can transform our own and others' state of life.
"Mr. Makiguchi said: 'When we practice Nichiren Buddhism, before we know it we find we have attained a previously unimaginable life state. It is just as the Daishonin writes: "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" (WND–1, 17).'"
