"Everyone in Japan, from the sovereign on down to the common people, without exception has tried to do me harm, but I have survived until this day. You should realize that this is because, although I am alone, I have firm faith."

"For what purpose have we appeared in the world? As Bodhisattvas of the Earth, we are here to realise kosen-rufu--to spread the Mystic Law that enables all people to attain Buddhahood. It is a sacred undertaking to unlock people's Buddha nature and awaken within them tremendous life-force, a positive spirit, a commitment to truth and justice, courage, and hope. Put simply, our purpose is encouragement."
