"Everything begins with changing our own attitude or mind-set. This applies equally to forging solid unity. If members of an organisation are constantly at loggerheads, always blaming and criticising each other, there will never be any unity among them. Since organisations are made up of individuals, weare bound to encounter all kinds of people. At times, there may be cases when our personalities just don't mesh with certain individuals. That is why unless we do our human revolution, we will not be able to forge bonds of shared purpose with each other, rising above various differences. In 'The Heritage of the Ultimate Law of Life,' the Daishonin urges his followers to unite 'in the spirit of many in body but one in mind, transcending all differences among themselves [free of distinctions of self and other] to become as inseparable as fish and the water in which they swim' (WND-1,217).
"It is only natural that people will have different personalities and temperaments. But that doesn't mean that because people are different from us, we should discriminate against them or exclude and reject them. The important thing is that we respect each other and accept each others' differences, with an all-embracing heart that is free of discrimination or distinctions of self and other."
