  • Shōkō’s Claim Toward Ordinary Nenbutsu Practitioners: Shown in the <i>Jōdoshū myōmoku mondō</i> 浄土宗名目問答

抄録

<p>I have earlier pointed out that some of Shōkōbō Benchō’s 聖光房弁長 （1162-1238） ideas were explained in his efforts to spread the teaching of Nenbutsu. In this article, I try to clarify if there are any claims toward those who know the teaching of Nenbutsu and who recite it, and if so, what kind of claims they are. I mainly look into the Jōdoshū myōmoku mondō 浄土宗名目問答 among his writings.</p><p>Those claims were found in discussions about the following three things: the three mindsets 三心, the four cultivations 四修, and the three modalities of practice 三種行儀. Even ordinary people must be equipped with the former two in this life. They will respectively be attained by reciting Nenbutsu while believing that Amida Buddha will come and greet one, and by doing it even only a few times a day, but for a lifetime. The last one will be practiced by keeping to the practice of the ordinary Nenbutsu.</p><p>Explaining the importance of Nenbutsu practice to those practitioners following the single recitation doctrine is the main purpose of this writing. We therefore conclude that Shōkō wanted to claim that it is not difficult for Nenbutsu practitioners to be equipped with those three things.</p>
