Established by Honen Shonin in 1175, Jodo Shu is
the first independent school of Pure Land Buddhism in Japan. It
follows the development of original Buddhism as taught by
Shakyamuni Buddha. Over 800 years since the beginning of Jodo
Shu, Honen's teachings still continue to develop and to constitute a
part of our daily life. The
nembutsu, "Namu Amida Butsu", is the simple recitation of
"Homage to
Amida Buddha" and the center of Jodo Shu practice and devotion.
It can be done at any time or any place. It is the ideal way for us
to embody the great compassion of Amida Buddha in our daily lives.
