Happy Science USA

A teaching ideally suited to modern society. In Buddhist terms, this teaching is about building a Buddha Land, a utopia on Earth. In worldly terms, it is to encourage the people who study the Truth to be successful in this world, because the more successful a person is, the greater their influence. I want people to achieve true success and increase their influence on others, without ever becoming slaves to money, becoming absorbed solely in getting promotions, or increasing their attachment by remaining stuck fast to their position.

I would also like people to seize hold of the happiness that can be carried from this world to the next. The Institute for Research in Human Happiness provides clear teachings about the other world so it is unlikely that any of our members would search for the kind of happiness that is limited to this world alone.

It is my hope that everyone will achieve the greatest possible happiness in this world as well as the next. As long as this is not achieved at the cost of the happiness of others, happiness in this world will lead to happiness in the next.
