-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The Daishonin encourages us,
"(Arouse deep faith, and)
diligently polish your mirror
day and night."*
It's persistently doing gongyo
and chanting daimoku everyday,
the most profound
Buddhist practice,
which enables us to
thoroughly polish our lives.

in This Lifetime"

"Peace begins with helping each person recognise and develop their highest potential. Expanding our network of people committed to dialogue is a process through which we draw forth our own and the other person's infinitely noble Buddha nature. That is the most fundamental action and surest step to root out the evil behind nuclear weapons."
