-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
"Morning after morning 
we rise up with the Buddha,
evening after evening 
we lie down with the Buddha."*
Aligning our lives with 
the rhythm of the Mystic Law,
let's put priority on maintaining 
our good health, 
and advance!
Let's always challenge ourselves 
to create value!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"But encountering a good friend is the hardest possible thing to do. For this reason, the Buddha likened it to the rarity of a one-eyed turtle finding a floating log with a hollow in it the right size to hold him, or to the difficulty of trying to lower a thread from the Brahmā heaven and pass it through the eye of a needle on the earth."

(Three Tripitaka Masters Pray for Rain 
- WND, Vol. 1, page 598)
