Description

One Word, One People, One Way.

The temple is the center of the community, from within its walls, Monks spread the teachings of Buddha to the people, converting many and inciting others to revolt. The temple monks bring a message of hope too, spreading happiness and, in war, their presence is an inspiration. Unlike other Buddhist Sects, Jodo Shinshu Buddhism placed great importance on the lives of those who followed its teachings. Followers were not supposed to devote their entire lives to study. Instead, their their faith was to be part of their ordinary, everyday lives. it was these principals that brought about the Ikko Ikki, As well as strong religious beliefs. The Ikko Ikki had equally strong political beliefs, desiring an end to feudal government, the Shoguns and the whole state. Instead, the people would rule themselves, and the Ikko Ikki were willing to die to bring about their alms. Naturally, this pitted them against great lords, including Tokugawa Ieyasu and Oda Nobunga. It would be Nobunga who eventually brought destruction to the Sect at the brutal battle of Nagashima. This building can only be constructed by the Ikko Ikki and cannot be used by any other clan.
