Located in Toshima City Tokyo and established in 1926. The embroidered ceremonial flag has purple background with a gold emblem and horizontally written gold kanji university name in gold fringe. The color purple, which is revered as a noble color in Buddhism, represents Taisho University's founding philosophy of "Practice of Wisdom and Compassion". The university flag has purple background with a white emblem and horizontally written white kanji university name. The emblem of Taisho University is a reproduction of Nalanda Temple, the Indian Buddhist research forest, and represents the life of Buddha. The three leaves of the linden tree represent the Buddha's birth, attainment of enlightenment, and nirvana, and the three sects that founded the university and the 36 lucky plants (representing those who study and believe in Buddhism) that were laid down by the Buddha when he attained enlightenment symbolize Taisho University, the center for Buddhist studies.
