Announcements

A new website has been created that is devoted to the works and accomplishments of Daisaku Ikeda: http://www.daisakuikeda.org

The January 2008 launching of this site coincides with and celebrates the 80th birthday of Daisaku Ikeda. This site offers information and resources concerning the life and achievements of Mr. Ikeda, as well as a selection of his own writings and photographic works. Each of the main sections of Buddhist Philosopher, Peacebuilder and Educator offers, for the first time online, comprehensive writings detailing his thinking and achievements with respect to those themes, while the Profile section presents a detailed biography of his life. A Resource section, which will be updated periodically, makes available the latest news concerning Mr. Ikeda as well as his writings, interviews and records of his achievements and recognition.

Starting this September, there will be a World Peace Prayer Meeting (Kosen Rufu Gongyo) on Cape Cod on the first Sunday of every month at 10am! It is sponsored by South Coast, Cape & Islands Chapter. The address is Lakewood Hills Clubhouse, 11 Kiahs Way, East Sandwich, MA 02537.

For more information, call Lore White: 508-398-9758.

The New England Culture Center is now closed on Mondays.

See the NE Culture Center page for details on days and hours of operation.

RSS feeds are available from this site.

Good candidates for feeds are the Announcements and the Youth Division sections of this site.

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feeds are titles of and links to articles from sites like this that are fed to your browser or to news aggregator programs. In web-speak this is "push" instead of "pull" technology. The articles are pushed out to your browser instead of your having to go to the website and pull them out. This means that you can have new announcements fed to your browser as soon as they are posted on the SGI New England site, rather than you having to keep checking the site to see what's new.
