Prospectus
We have been
engaged in transmitting Buddhism and its culture to a
wider public or to the following generations and have
compiled and published various titles in the field
including "Nihon Jiin Sokan" (Comprehensive
Directory of Japanese Temples), "Gendai Bukkyo
Jinmei-roku" (Who's Who in Contemporary Japanese
Buddhism), and "Nihon MeisatsuEMeiso-roku"
(Directory of Japanese Famous Temples and Distinguished
Priests). Publications, however, have their limitations
as a medium to report timely and speedily on a wide range
of subjects from the histories of Japanese individual
temples to their current activities along with their
close relationship with Japanese history and culture.
That is why we have now chosen the Internet as an
additional medium of communication. It allows
transmission of as much information as desired to people
around the world and free updating of the information. "BUDDHA WORLD" -- our home page
is so entitled, and we really |
"BUDDHA
WORLD" will provide information on Japanese Buddhist
temples on a nationwide scale and will be so designed to
enable you to learn, while reading the news reported
herein, much about Japanese history, culture, and art
that have been closely interrelated with Buddhism. Adding
more value to our inheritance and handing it down to our
following generations -- we believe this is what we
should do to develop our history. A great advantage of
the Internet is that it can transmit information in real
time, and we will make the most of this advantage and
update the news from time to time. We have received advice and requests from a lot of people to the effect that they wish to obtain all kinds of Buddhism-related information from our home page including information on books and other products as well as on funeral, wedding, and other ceremonies. We have therefore decided to open a shopping mall "Monzen" (meaning "In front of a Temple Gate") shortly in this page. We hope a lot of people will come and enjoy shopping at this new mall. |
