Built entirely by volunteer labor, the Peace Pagoda was inaugurated in 1985, one of approximately 80 worldwide. Nipponzan Myohoji is a Buddhist religious order founded by the Most Venerable Nichidatsu Fujii in 1917. In the course of his life spanning 100 years (1885 - 1985) Fujii Guruji walked and prayed for peace beating a prayer through many parts of the world. He instructed his disciples to do

the same. He also urged the building of Peace Pagodas to be places of individual and collective focus on peace. Fujii Guruji also lived with Mahatma Ghandi in India and supported the non-violent independence movement of the Indian people.

To our Relatives in Canada, we are holding you in our thoughts as communities continue to face the devastating impacts of the wildfires. We send our heartfelt wishes for safety, relief, strength, and healing to all those affected.

Across many regions, families, Elders, children, and entire communities have been displaced, while firefighters, emergency responders, and volunteers continue working tirelessly to protect lives and homelands. Our hearts break for those who have been forced to evacuate and who are facing the uncertainty, disruption, and loss that these fires have brought to their communities.

If you would like to help, please consider making a donation to trusted organizations providing emergency assistance and recovery support to impacted communities. One organization accepting donations is Anishinabek Nation 7th Generation Charity, which is supporting wildfire relief efforts. https://an7gc.ca/donate/

In times like these, every prayer, act of kindness, and contribution matters. Let us stand together in solidarity with our relatives across Canada.
