The Institute for Research in Human Happiness (IRH), Kofuku-no-Kagaku
in Japanese, is an organization of people who aim to cultivate their
souls and deepen their love and wisdom through learning and practicing
the teachings (the Truth) of Ryuho Okawa. The Institute spreads
the light of Truth, with the aim of creating an ideal world on Earth.
The teachings of the Institute are based on the spirit of Buddhism
and also embody a grand base for the integration of the major religions
of the world, including Christianity. The two main pillars are the
attainment of spiritual wisdom and the practice of love that
gives.
Members learn the Truth through books, lectures and seminars to
acquire knowledge of a spiritual view of life and the world. They
also practice meditation and self-reflection daily, based on the
Truth they have learned. This is the way to develop a deeper understanding
of life and build characters worthy of being leaders in society
who can contribute to the development of the world.
