NOTICE of Domain Changes: |
||
| In 1996 NBIC and the Los Angeles Nichiren Shu Temple jointly ventured and shared the development costs for the NichirenShu.org
domain. It was hoped that this site would develop and encompass any or all temples willing to participate. For many reasons, other Temples and Churches pursued their own development under various other domains. In 2000 the NBIC council made the decision to separate from co-ownership of the NichirenShu.org domain. NBIC has since acquired the Official domain name of Nichiren-shu.org for their International Efforts. We wish them great success. It is our hope that all the various groups, Temples, and Churches will continue in their development and outreach. Together within the heart of the dharma we will spread the true teachings of the Lotus Sutra; Expounding faithfully our founders insight for the entire world. Let us all repay the debt we owe to the Infinite Life of Sakyamuni, our Original Teacher, the Original Teaching Myohorengekyo, and the transmission obtained on Mt. Sacred Eagle. |

LA.NichirenShu.org: |
||
| Officially the Los Angeles Temple will use the subdomain of LA.NichirenShu.org for its own unique outreach purposes. We will also facilitate the development of a general outreach by establishing "The
Nichiren Shu Community Network." It is our hope that other individuals, Churches, and Temples will avail themselves of these services and jointly reach out in various ways to their own communities. FOR MORE INFORMATION CONTACT THE Los Angeles Temple Webmaster OR THE LA TEMPLE.
