"When we have this mandala with us, it is a rule that all the Buddhas and gods will gather round and watch over us, protecting us like a shadow day and night, just as warriors guard their ruler, as parents love their children, as fish rely on water, as trees and grasses crave rain, and as birds depend on trees. You must trust in it with all your heart."
(On Upholding Faith in the Gohonzon
-- WAGA TOMO NI OKURU --
YUJO WA JINSEI NO ZAISAN DA.
TAISETSU NI KYUKO O ATATAME
ARATANA DEAI O MUSUBO.
KOKORO O KOMETA KOTOBA DE!
SEIJITSUNA FURUMAI DE!
-- with words that come from the heart
and by sincere concerned actions!
