"When we read such words of encouragement in the Daishonin's writings, we can't help but be struck by his great compassion in empathising with people and his sincere wish to awaken their belief in their potential. He imparts to his disciples the boundless confidence and courage to overcome the hardships and challenges they may encounter as they practice the great teaching for the enlightenment of all people. His words convey an incredible degree of care and concern for each person."
