“This is a project that needs to be accomplished. …On this occasion of the construction and foundation of the retreat house of The Benevolence Center, if one can assist those who have faith in Dharma according to their needs to whatever extent possible, then it will be of benefit both to oneself and to others. As regards the welfare of others, this will be a cause of inconceivable benefit for many who will practice the excellent Dharma in the future. As regards one’s own welfare, it is certain that a vast collection of merit will arise for oneself. Therefore, I request everyone to help harmoniously in whatever way they can.”
