      Our Temple is under the guidance of Shami Kanyu Kroll. Kanyu Houshi is a direct student of Rev. Kanjin Cederman. Kanjin Shonin is Abbot and head priest of the Seattle Choeizan Enkyoji Nichiren Buddhist Temple and the Enkyoji Buddhist Temples of Rochester and Buffalo, NY. Enkyoji Temple of Rochester is of the Nakayama Lineage of Nichiren Shu running through Choeizan-Enkyoji Temple of Seattle to Enkyoji Temple in Saga, Japan. The Nakayama lineage of Rev. Kanjin Cederman and Choeizan Enkyoji Temple has a long and important history. The lineage was transmitted by Rev. Kanto Tsukamoto from Enkyoji Temple in Saga, Kyushu, Southern Japan. The Saga Enkyoji is where Rev. Tsukamoto, Rev. Cedermans teacher, and his family have continued this wonderful lineage of faith and practice for many generations. Enkyoji was originally a Shingon Shu temple. In the 15th century, Nichijo Shonin, who was the head priest of the temple, lost a debate with the famous Nichiren Shu priest Kuonjoin Nisshin Shonin during his stay in Hizen prefecture, which was between modern Saga and Nagasaki prefectures. Following his loss to Nisshin Shonin, Nichijo Shonin converted the temple to Nichiren Shu.
