"Shinran granted us access to the Pure Land in the afterlife. Offered the way of Buddha to the common folk."
―Mitsumune describing Shinran to Naoe, 1582.[src]-[m]

Shinran (親鸞, 21 May 1173 – 16 January 1263) was a Japanese Buddhist monk and the founder of what later became the Jōdo Shinshū sect of Japanese Buddhism.[1]

Legacy

In 1582, Fujibayashi Naoe met the monk Mitsumune to help gather support for Kyonyo to take on Wada Koretake. Mitsumune and his troops had recently suffered a crushing defeat and were in no condition to fight again, though Mitsumume said he would reconsider if Naoe boosted his soldiers' morale by recovering a stolen statue of Shinran from bandits. After Naoe retrieved the statue from Toneyama Post Town, Mitsumune revealed he no longer felt himself a worthy protector of the figure and instructed[2] her to deliver it to Kyonyo herself.[3]
