---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"With even greater conviction that 'The voice carries out the work of the Buddha' (OTT, 4), let us reach out courageously, sincerely and joyfully in dialogue. Let's also deeply pledge together to make 'the sound of the teacher and the disciples chanting in unison' (OTT, 111) enfold our planet with all- encompassing hearts and expand our circle of fellow Bodhisattvas of the Earth. In this way, let us bring a spring of good fortune and harmony to people's lives, a spring of value creation to society and a spring of peace and co-existence to shine for humanity."
