Dialogue

If you have attained faith please convey your joy to others. They may have a different faith to you but true faith is beyond religion. They can receive a lot from your spiritual attitude. Do not worry that they do not share it just keep going on your own way to the Pure Land.”

- Reverend Kemmyo Taira Sato at the 43rd Ofumi meeting held at Three Wheels Temple
