For Myoko Naganuma, the Lotus Sutra was not something to leave on the page. It had to be lived in the way we treat people. Today we remember the Cofounder of Rissho Kosei-kai (1889–1957). Her life still asks us: are the teachings changing how we meet those around us? #LotusSutra

Risshō Kōsei-kai — Lay Buddhist movement. Founded 1938 Japan.
One all Vehicle truth across faiths, engaged — disaster relief, interfaith @UN, Africa development, nuclear abolition.
"Peace begins with a smile in the home."
