Notes and Events:
An article on this website explains how the meaning of the Lotus Sutra and the rituals of the Nichiren tradition can be reset for a secular worldview. The site also contains sample secular prayers to replace traditional versions found in the prayer books of multiple denominations. The purpose is to provide those ready to transition into a secular practice with a way to either integrate with the school they are currently associated with or continue independently.
Reading the article may be difficult for some. It is formatted for an academic journal and addresses issues related to reinterpreting long-standing Mahayana doctrine. The site administer is available for questions, but there are no priests or lay leaders. No donations, too.

Notes and Events:
The Nichiren Shu is a Buddhist Order founded by Nichiren Shonin (1222-1282). We believe that the Lotus Sutra (Saddharma-Pundarika Sutra) represents the embodiment of the genuine teachings of Sakyamuni Buddha, the founder of Buddhism. Our belief in this doctrine is affirmed by our chanting of the Odaimoku (Sacred Title):
~ Namu Myoho Renge Kyo ~
Adoration to the Sublime Law
of the Lotus of the Perfect Truth.

Nichiren Shu, means the teaching of Nichiren, who was a great sage and appeared in Japan the 13th Century. We believe Shakyamuni Buddha, (Siddharta Guatama) is the original Buddha. He taught the Lotus Sutra which is the primary teaching of the of Nichiren Shu. By chanting Namu Myoho Renge Kyo as Nichiren taught we are able to attain Buddhahood. We hold meetings twice a month. They are small and intimate. One may attend as an observer and guest. There is no pressure to participate in the ceremonies or join our group. You are most welcome.
In Nichiren Shu there is no discrimination against class, race, belief or sexual orientation. Nichiren Shu is dedicated to all beings achieving their potential and happiness. Please be well and happy.

TWDD represents a powerful tool to unfold our inner peace and to develop true happiness.
During each meditation session, we will give about half hour on-going teaching on " the three principle aspects of the path of true happiness" - a fundamental study set forth for successful meditation practices. Also we will do half hour standing meditation, 45 minutes of sitting meditation, as well as a short QA session.
The essence of TWDD meditation is to preoccupy one’s body, mind and speech with (holding) Mudra, (visualizing) Guru and (speaking) Mantra. In just a matter of 2 hours/per day in up to 7 days, all practitioners will be able to establish the connection to their own Dharma Nature, thereby generating the confidence to continue on the journey of spiritual development.
