Congratulatory Letter
Your Holiness Buddha Vajradhara Wan Ko Yeshe Norbu Dharma King:
I, as a head of the Koyasan Shingon-shu North American Mission, have seen Your Holiness great accomplishments on Buddhism, which have never been seen before in the world. Your Holiness is truly the primordial Buddha who incarnate to this world to save living beings and to transmit the authentic Buddha-dharma of Tathagata. All of us from different sects of Buddhism are extremely joyful about this. This supreme karmic affinity of true Buddha-dharma is difficult to encounter in eons and today finally appears in our world again. I would like to extend my utmost respect and sincere congratulations to Your Holiness and to wish that every living being would be able to listen to the supreme Buddha-dharma your Holiness brings to us.
Respectfully,
Bishop Seicho Asahi
Koyasan Shingon-shu North American Mission
