The late Reverend Hozen Seki founded the American Buddhist Academy in 1951. Our core vision has always been to enlighten the minds and spirits of Americans through the great compassion, wisdom, and teachings of Amida Buddha. In 2000 we changed our name to American Buddhist Study Center but our vision remains the same.The American Buddhist Study Center is committed to providing Americans with greater knowledge and a deeper understanding into the teachings of the Buddha as well as the teachings of Shin Buddhism, the most common form of Buddhism in Japan.Over the past 67 years, we have invited well known Buddhist scholars, authors, monks and ministers to speak at our Study Center events. Most noteworthy was D.T. Suzuki, the man who introduced Zen Buddhism to America.
