-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The Daishonin writes,
"The votary of the Lotus Sutra
is like the sun or the lion."
Like the rising sun and
with the valiant heart of a lion,
let's advance boldly!

It is said that, if a teacher has a good disciple, both will gain the fruit of Buddhahood, but if a teacher fosters a bad disciple, both will fall into hell. If teacher and disciple are of different minds, they will never accomplish anything.
