Welcome to Nichiren Shu

Nichiren Shu Buddhism is both a deep, spiritual practice and a way of living. One can spend a lifetime exploring the depths and nuances of the tradition. However, it’s also an immediate practice that powerfully engages each individual right from the start and gives each person a sense of connection to a wider community and a new way of thinking about life itself.

Our Founder, Nichiren Shonin, developed a practice that centers on the teachings of the Lotus Sutra and makes it possible for people to connect with its teachings and get on a path to revealing their true Buddha nature.
