 | | Shinran (1173-1263) is regarded and revered as the founder of the school of the true teaching of the Pure Land, which is often referred to merely as Shin Buddhism. | | | Shinran triggered a strong criticism of Buddhist institutions and clergy for not representing Buddhist compassion and wisdom. | | | Shinran's decision to marry publicly and give up monastic precepts, and his critique of the contemporary Buddhist order may be based on his teaching of equal priesthood of all believers in light of the universal grace of Amida Buddha. |

| | Shinran was respectful toward his master, but on the point of faith he rejected Honen's inconclusiveness and developed the religion in the way it clearly should have developed. | | | A sequel to the critical religion known as exclusive-nembutsu, Shinran's theory was the necessary apparition of a religion of human dignity. | | | Shinran realized that, taken to its logical conclusion, dependence on the True Vow implied the exteriority of kyo, gyo, shin, and sho (teaching, practice, faith, and evidence); none of the four were ruptures in the human world but events from the outside, from Buddha's side. |

| | Shinran, convinced that the teaching of birth through nembutsu was the only way for the foolish and ignorant being like him to attain buddhahood, abandoned the practices on Mt. Hiei at the age of twenty-nine. | | | Shinran spoke himself as neither monk nor worldly (layman)', for; deprived of his ordination, he could no longer be considered a monk, yet he still strongly aspired for enlightenment. | | | Shinran was stripped off his ordination as a monk and was forced to use a secular name, Yoshizane Fujii. |

| | Shinran Shonin was ordained as a novice Tendai Buddhism monk at age 8 and spent 20 years following the rigorous practices and ascetic routines which were practiced by the sect at that time. | | | This short passage is indicative of the simplicity and purity of Shinran's faith and teaching. | | | On one occasion, Shinran spoke to some seekers who travelled hundred of miles at peril to their own lives in hopes that he had some secret inside information about the Nembutsu (faith in the name of Amida Buddha). |

Hiei. | | | December 14: Shinran preaches to his disciple Kenchi about ‘jinen ho-ni’ (his final teaching of the natural inevitability of the ‘Dharma as it is’). | | | October 29: In a letter to Keishin Shinran refers to the teaching that a person of true faith can be considered equal to the Tathagata. |

| | The Bifurcation of Shinran's Teaching |
| | It goes without saying that Shinran's criticism of the government for their despotic control of Buddhists originated for him at the age of thirty-five when the nembutsu community, led by Honen, his master, was persecuted by the government. | | | Shinran sent letters often to the disciples in Kanto warning them not to disturb the society outside their community. | | | Now, in turning to the notion of a bifurcation of Shinran's Shinjin, the phrase "Buddha's Law and King's Law" throws into sharp relief the very pure soteriological truth given by the teaching of Pure Land Buddhism, which is the "Buddha's Law," and the "King's Law," which is the law of the secular authorities. |

| | Shinran himself did not intend to found a new school, but as he states in the Kyogyoshinsho and other works, he merely followed the teachings of the Buddha and the Seven Patriarchs and sought to reveal their true meanings. | | | Shinran went to Mt. Hiei, the center of Tendai Buddhism, where he studied and practiced the Tendai teaching for twenty years. | | | Shinran's re-interpretation of the Buddhist teachings comes from his experience of complete reliance upon Amida's Power, which is called 'the Other-Power'. |

| | As an example of Shinran sama's awareness during the short time (approximately six years) he studied under Honen Shonin, we find an episode in which Shinran and several of Honen's other disciples were discussing a comparison Shinran had made between his own mind of faith and that of their teacher. | | | Shinran secluded himself in Rokkaku Temple with the intention of fasting and meditating for 100 days. | | | Early on the 95th day, it is said that Shinran heard the voice of Shotoku Taishi, revealed as Kannon Bosatsu (the bodhi-sattva of mercy), and thereupon decided to seek out Honen Shonin, who was teaching in the Yoshimizu area near Kyoto. |

| | On the contrary, students of Shinran's religion should not confine their study to a biographical point of view by which it is difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff of legends but must see it in a historical context which does not allow hero worship to get in the way of doctrinal interpretation. | | | The inseparability of faith and Buddha's realm of Awakening is not a construction peculiar to Shinran and his teachers. | | | The last chapter in Understanding Shinran, is a reference to the trikaya, 'Form and Formlessness,' in which the logic of negation is seen as Shinran's refusal to give a positive identity to the dharmakaya. |

| | Nembutsu of No Meaning |
| | It was Shinran and Ippen, two Pure Land figures coming out of Honen's lineage and leading their lives outside of the established religious order, who were among the earliest popularizers of this song form that expressed their religious feelings and took hold in the imagination of large numbers of followers. | | | From the age of twenty-nine when Shinran entered the fold of Honen's Pure Land Buddhism until he settled back in Kyoto sometime in his early sixties, Shinran apparently did not do much writing except to work on the Kyogyoshinsho, and his primary mode of communication was oral. | | | In terms of the mode of expression, Shinran's emphasis in these works is not on doctrinal learning but on awakening to the depth of one's blind passions, including those having to do with scholarly knowledge, and realizing the unobstructed freedom of great compassion. |

| | This, however, is not reductionism on Shinran's part but an attempt to rehabilitate the 'wisdom' aspect of the Mahayana which was in danger of possibly being overlooked by the rich upayas offered by the great message of compassion which, in many ways, formed the centrepiece of the Pure Land message. | | | One of the principal texts that Shinran used in support of his views regarding the ultimate reality was the famous Nirvana Sutra which he practically quotes in its entirety in his magnum opus, Kyogyoshinsho. | | | For a long time, Amitabha was recognised as one of one of many Buddhas existing throughout the universe each with their own pure lands which have been generated from their practices and vows. |

| | Shinran describes the Buddha of light and life that are without any possible boundaries or limitations, and utterly beyond the ability of our deluded present minds to fully comprehend. | | | Their seemingly evil acts led directly to Sakyamuni Buddha teaching the Contemplation Sutra (Kanmuryojukyo), in which for the first time the idea that even a single utterance of nembutsu is sufficient is taught. | | | Often people chanted nembutsu for the sake of their parents--they believed that saying the nembutsu built up a store of good karma, which could be dedicated to their parents so they would be reborn in the Pure Land. |

| | Shinran (1173-1262), who claimed to be Honen's true disciple, is regarded as the founder of the most important of all 'Pure Land' sects. | | | The collection of Shinran's sayings is said to have been made by his disciple Yuiembo, who was concerned over heresies and schisms developing among Shinran's followers and wished to compile a definitive statement of his master's beliefs. | | | The reason is that, if a man by his own efforts persuaded others to say the Nembutsu, he might call them his disciples, but it is most presumptuous to call those 'my disciples' who say the Nembutsu because they have been moved by the grace of Amida. |

| | As you know, Shakyamuni was the founder of Buddhism and Shinran was the founder of Jodo Shinshu in 13th century Japan. | | | Thus, there are many similarities between Shakyamuni and Shinran, but the most basic similarities are that they both renounced the traditional practice-oriented religions of their time, experienced the same twofold awakening and lived a humble and dynamic life after awakening. | | | And so, just as Shakyamuni became a "dropout" of Brahminism (the traditional practice-oriented religion of his time), Shinran became a "dropout" of Tendai Buddhism (the major religion of his time). |
