Also, "the sun, the moon, the truth". i think this means that someone represents each one of these things and then they are maybe the key to finding out who the Benefactor is. As stated above, it is a Buddhist mantra, which the wolves in this pack appear to use to focus and maintain control/calm. Much like the Hale's appear to have used the whole "Alpha, beta, omega" thing as their mantra. Doubtful there's much more to it than that, except for maybe some background info on how they came to use that particular phrase. Satomi must have had some reason for using it (hopefully it's not something stupid, like it had the word "moon" in it).

And I'll grant you that's probably why Derek didn't know they were out and about town, but still, considering Satomi was a friend of his mother's and visited often (presumably living nearby), it seems odd he wouldn't at least check to see if she was still in the area, as far back as season 1. An Alpha-powered friend of the family, with a pack no less, might just have been handy to have around when you're hunting down a strange Alpha who murdered your sister, right?
