The Cleveland Buddhist Temple is a Pure Land (Jodo Shinshu) community currently meeting at First Unitarian Church in Shaker Heights, Ohio. It traces its beginnings to 1944, and is at its current location since December, 2018. The current Supervising Minister is Rev. Ron Miyamura with the assistance of Tokudo Minister, Gary Shobo Jaskula.

History

Japanese-Americans founded the center in the mid-1940s, and after the first temple was destroyed during the Hough Riots in 1966, it relocated to Euclid, OH in 1970, a suburb of Cleveland. The Euclid building was sold in 2018 and the congregation's meetings and classes presently take place the third weekend of every month at space in the First Unitarian Church in Shaker Heights.

After some decline, membership saw an increase after Koshin Ogui arrived at the temple as minister in 1977. He created a new group, Zen Shin Sangha, which helped increase the appeal of the temple. The Cleveland Buddhist temple is currently reorganizing its activities, including meditation but re-focusing on Jodo Shinshu Buddhism, at its new location.
