Soka Gakkai

Japanese Buddhist religious movement

Soka Gakkai (Japanese: 創価学会, Hepburn: Sōka Gakkai; "creating value study group") is a Japanese new religion founded in 1930 based on the teachings of the 13th-century Japanese Buddhist priest Nichiren. The Sōka Gakkai has been led by Minoru Harada since December 2023. The organization bases its teachings on Nichiren's interpretation of the Lotus Sutra and places chanting Nam Myōhō Renge Kyō at the center of devotional practice.
