Information may not be reliable

Practicing Buddhism for Everyday Living…
We strive to cultivate our spirituality by practicing the teachings in our daily lives, realize the Universal Truth and build great harmony within ourselves, family, community, and the world.
Rissho Kosei-kai was founded in Japan on March 5, 1938 by the late Nikkyo Niwano and Myoko Naganuma. It is based on the teachings of the Eternal Buddha Shakyamuni, through the scriptures of the Lotus Sutra as interpreted.
“Rissho” means to stand on the right teachings of the Buddha. “Kosei” means to interact among people to try to perfect our character through mutual support and encouragement. “Kai” means a group of people of the same belief. Therefore, Rissho Kosei-kai means a community of believers that strive to perfect their character by interacting with others basing their actions on the Dharma (teaching) taught by the Buddha.
