ConstructionThis Jōdo Shinshū temple was built in Japan in 1984 by Daibun Co. and known as Hei-Sei-Ji (平清治) and Tsuzuki Hondo (都築 本堂).[3] The temple is 900 square feet.[4] However, the temple was never assigned a Buddhist priest to serve a practicing lay community. If this had been the case, then the temple would not have been removed from Japan.[5] The temple was renamed The Place of Peace at Furman and is a learning space to educated students and public about oneness.[6] In 2004 the Hei-Sei-Ji temple was dismantled into more than 2,400 pieces[7] and shipped in four containers across the Pacific, through the Panama Canal and arrived in Charleston, South Carolina.[8] CalligraphyHanging in the front of the meditation hall (shomen) is a calligraphy scroll of a poem written and brushed by Koichi Tohei. It reads, "信奉宇宙霊感応即現成." David Shaner translated the individual words of the poem as,[9]
"Blessed Universal Spirit at this very moment I feel your presence."[10] DedicationOn September 5, 2008, a dedication was presided over by David E. Shaner, assisted by Jim Eubanks, Abbot, Order of Pragmatic Buddhists.[11] Among the guests were David Emory Shi, President of Furman University; Masanobu Yoshii, Acting Consul General of Japan; Masao Nakajima, President, Aichiken Construction; and Hiroshi Sato, Construction Supervisor.{{cn|date=January 2019}} Major contributorsMajor funding provided by Timothy F.
