The Nichiren Shu is a Buddhist
Order founded by the religious prophet and reformer, Nichiren
Shonin (1222-1282). He espoused the doctrine that the Lotus Sutra
(Saddharma Pundarika Sutra) represents the embodiment of the genuine
teachings of Sakyarnuni Buddha, the founder of Buddhism, the Saviour
of this world.
Our belief in this doctrine is
affirmed by our chanting of the O'Daimoku (Sacred Title) “Namu
Myoho Renge Kyo,” that is, “Moration to the Scripture
of the Lotus of the Perfect Truth.’
We believe that Nichiren Shonin
was the messenger of the Buddha who has guided us in cultivating
our Buddha-nature, a quality inherent in all beings, and establishing
a way of life consonant with the eternal truths preached by the
Buddha.
We vow to the Buddha and Nichiren Shonin that we will strive to
engender peace within ourselves and throughout the world by disseminating
the teaching expounded in the Lotus Sutra.Nichiren Shu Malaysia
Nichiren Shu Malaysia was established
in the year 2002. Our practise are based on Sakyamuni Buddha's teachings
and Nichiren Shonin's guidance based on the Lotus Sutra. We currently
have a temple in Penang and a Sangha in Klang. Everyone is welcome
to join us in our daily practise and to share the Dharma Joy.
Gassho (with my hands in prayer
form, with the greatest respect, I bow to the Buddha inside you.)
Gassho,
