It belongs to Jodo Shinshu Hongwanji-ha, one of the largest denominations of the Pure Land stream of Mahayana Buddhism, and the largest Buddhist denomination in the United States. It is a direct branch of Nishi Hongwanji-ha in Kyoto, Japan. The temple's website is: https://www.nishihongwanji-la.org/about-us/
