RKINA - Buddhism For Today - Rissho Kosei-Kai International of North America

Within the rhythm of daily life-the commute, the chores, the quiet moments-there’s space to explore a practical, compassionate spirituality. RKINA-Buddhism For Today-Rissho Kosei-Kai International of North America emerges from that space, offering conversations and teachings grounded in a contemporary lay community. This podcast is a voice from the Rissho Kosei-Kai International of North America, an online Dharma Center where everyday experience itself becomes the foundation for practice. Rather than abstract philosophy, discussions here focus on applying timeless Buddhist concepts to modern challenges, drawing deeply from the wisdom of the Threefold Lotus Sutra. You’ll hear reflections on cultivating the heart and mind, not in isolation, but within the context of relationships, work, and society. The aim is the bodhisattva path-a way of active compassion that starts at home and extends outward. Each episode serves as an invitation to consider how personal transformation is intrinsically linked to fostering peace in our communities and the wider world. It’s for anyone curious about a Buddhism that is lived, not just studied, and seeks a supportive sangha of fellow travelers exploring what it means to walk this path today. Tune in for a thoughtful, accessible companion on the journey of self-improvement and spiritual discovery.
