To all our Soto Zen friends around the world
Dear Sir, Madam

Already two years have pasted since "The Great East Japan Earthquake". And for many years to come, it is an instant that will not be forgotten.

Thanks to concerted help from around the world Sotoshu is working to restore the devastated areas and help the disaster victims.
It will be hard to bring those affected areas back to the level they were before the terrible earthquakes and tsunamis, and we might need to seek new ways to accomplish this. But we must as before strive to meet all challenges head on, transmit the teachings and supporting all beings.
We would like to thank you again for your support and help. We are sure that your prayers and the sound of the bells tolling have been reaching and comforting all the people affected by the great east Japan earthquake.

Sincerely,
President of Sotoshu

Koichi Sasaki

Pray for JAPAN - We are always with you!
