Daifukuji Soto Mission

Daifukuji Soto Mission, also known as The Temple of Great Happiness, was established in 1914 in Honalo Kona on the Big Island of Hawaii. The mission aims to provide the teachings of the Buddha and Soto Zen practice, fostering a serene and supportive environment for Buddhist study and community activities.

The temple houses significant figures in Zen Buddhism, including Shakyamuni Buddha, Zen Masters Dogen and Keizan, as well as Bodhidharma and Daigen Shuri Bosatsu. Visitors are encouraged to remove their shoes before entering the Kannon Hall, where the Hawaii Kannon Kwan Yin resides alongside representations of compassion, offering a tranquil space for meditation and reflection.
