Jodo Shinshu, literally meaning True Pure Land Religion was founded by Shinran Shonin. In America, it is often called Shin Buddhism.
The accepted date of the founding of this denomination is 1224, when the first draft of Shinran's mos important book 'Teaching, Practice, Faith, and Attainment' (Kyo Gyo Shin Sho) was completed.
Having awakened to the compassion of Amida Buddha and rejoicing in the assurance of Buddhahood, we shall endeavor to live a life of gratitude and compassionate activity.
Tradition
The Hongwanji is a community of people joined together by the joy of a common entrusting in Amida Buddha. As Jodo Shinshu Buddhists, we shall seek to be humble and sincere in words and in deeds, to be responsible citizens of our society and to share with others the teachings of Jodo Shinshu. Understanding fully the principle of causality, we shall not practice petitionary prayer and magic, and do not depend on astrology and superstitions.
