Our
Story

Welcome!

Welcome to the Watsonville Buddhist Temple website. We belong to the sect of Buddhism called Jodo Shinshu Honganji Ha, also known as the True Pure Land Sect of Buddhism. We are affiliated with our mother temple the Nishi Honganji in Kyoto Japan. We welcome you to be a part of our Sangha (fellowship of Buddhists) in our efforts to support and follow the teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha.
