Notes and Events:

Based on the teachings of the Eternal Buddha Shakyamuni, through the scriptures of the Lotus Sutra as interpreted.  We strive to cultivate our spirituality by practicing the teachings in our daily lives, realize the Universal Truth & build great harmony within ourselves and the world.  “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.

Notes and Events:

Rissho Kosei-kai is a worldwide Buddhist organization founded in Japan in 1938 by Nikkyo Niwano and Myoko Naganuma. It combines the wisdom of both the Lotus Sutra and the foundational teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha. Its purpose is to bring these transformative teachings to the modern world.

The Lotus Sutra is a teaching of human respect, both the study and practice of a spiritual path that develops human potential, and a way of living that seeks peace for all people. By studying, understanding, integrating, and practicing the teachings, human beings can gradually approach a state of mind free from delusions, thereby enriching their own lives and those of others around them. Because everything is interconnected, when people devote themselves to benefitting all beings through harmony, they create awareness and develop a better world. This is the ideal for practitioners of the Lotus Sutra.

Notes and Events:

RKUK has come to London to share the true spirit of Shakyamuni Buddha. The precious and ancient scriptures of the Lotus Sutra are our guiding light. 
Rissho Kosei-kai (RK) is a global Buddhist movement of people who hope to manifest the Buddha’s teachings in our own lives, applying them in our homes, workplaces and local communities – working towards a more peaceful world. We join hands with the followers of all faiths and none, and with people from all walks of life to take part in peace activities at home and around the world.
RK was founded in Tokyo, Japan in 1938, and its representative body Rissho Kosei-kai of the UK (RKUK) in Oxford in 1994.
‘Rissho’ means establishing the teaching of the true Dharma in our hearts and minds; ‘Kosei’ means aspiring to perfect oneself through interaction with many people, learning together and encouraging each other, and ‘kai’ means ‘society’ or ‘organisation’.
Our main scripture is the Threefold Lotus Sutra. Our Gohonzon, or focus of devotion, is the Eternal Buddha Shakyamuni—Great Benevolent Teacher, World-Honoured One. We have a Buddhist centre in West London as well as online programmes, which are open to anyone for practice.
