Welcome
to some of
religious writings of the BFF's senior lay dharma teacher G.R. Lewis, whose Buddhist name is Tri Nguyen (Source
of Wisdom). In addition, Mr. Lewis is the founder and leader of the North American Shin Buddhist Association (NASBA).
G.R. Lewis is one of those current young American-born Buddhist teachers who has the endowed gift to communicate
and share the dharma in the context of modern 21st century America culture, and furthermore who has the charismastic
energy to inspire others to practice and share it with the world. In 2001, he established the Buddhist Faith Fellowship
of Connecticut that since then evolved into a network of affiliated chapters in places like: Connecticut, New York, New Mexico, Texas, Ohio, Florida, Oregon, Canada, Mexico, Puerto
Rico, Argentina and even Japan. He is also the founder of three Shin Buddhist organizations: the North American Shin Buddhist Association (NASBA), Buddha Gaia, the first U.S. Buddhist environmental organization, and the New England Institute of Buddhist Studies. Currently, the Buddhist Faith Fellowship of Connecticut is the largest
Shin congregation in New England and the fastest growing Shin Buddhist community in the Americas through the continued growth of its many affiliated chapters.
