Golden Stage (English & Japanese) Conference

What is the focus of this conference?

SGI President Ikeda urges: "There is no retirement age in life. How, then, could there be any 'going into retirement' in the world of faith? The Buddhist Law is eternal, extending across the three existences of past, present and future, and the benefits of faith include perennial youth and eternal life." This conference is for Nichiren Buddhist practitioners ages 65 and above, and will focus on bringing forth the youthful and eternal benefits of faith. Through study sessions and lectures, experiences and dialogue sessions, participants will share the joys of practicing Nichiren Buddhism.
