-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Nichiren Daishonin teaches,
"The best way
to attain Buddhahood
is to encounter a good friend."*
Building a human network
Building a human network
of goodness**
by inspiring one another
is the surest path
is the surest path
to eternal happiness.
*"Three Tripitaka Masters Pray for Rain" (WND, Vol.1, page 598)
**Society today is characterised by cut-throat competition and mutual undermining, where envy, malice and harassment are rife. It is no exaggeration to say that selfishness prevails in our world, and people are alienated and closed off from one another. The Soka Gakkai promotes a movement aimed at opening those closed hearts and illuminating them with hope and courage through furthering dialogue, thereby building a human network of goodness.
