When I first came to this Buddhist Center a little over a year ago, I did not know what to expect. I already knew about Buddhism since I studied it for a few weeks in college, so some of the terminology I learned while going here was already ingrained in my brain. The weekly introduction meetings are great meetings to attend and there are many other meetings, both at this center and in local neighborhoods, that are all great to attend.
The people are very nice and welcoming. I feel like I can be myself when I'm at SGI. The Nichiren Buddhist philosophy that they follow was very similar to my belief system before I because a member, so I had no problem creating a connection to this organization. There is no judging here, everyone is welcome to come. If you're the kind of person who is looking for a life philosophy that can be applied to every day life, this is the place to go!
