About the SGI-USA
The SGI-USA is a lay Buddhist association based on the teachings of the Lotus Sutra and the Nichiren School of Mahayana Buddhism. As "engaged Buddhists," SGI members aim to create value in any circumstances and contribute to the well-being of others. Their practice sparks a process of ongoing inner transformation and empowerment known as "human revolution." The promotion of peace, culture and education is central to SGI's activities.
