    Description

    Faith can build mountains


    This massive complex of temples and halls is dedicated to the Jodo Shinshu Buddhism, and is very open to every Monk, Peasant or Samurai who wishes to learn and worship. The old doctrines are set aside, as the teachings of Jodo Shinshu hold that anyone can attain enlightenment, and that solitary meditation is not the only path. Construction of this magnificent shrine brings happiness to the Ikko Ikki, and improves replenishment as followers volunteer for their services. The Ishyama Honganji was built in 1496, a huge temple complex that housed the headquarters for the Ikko Ikki. It was constructed in Settsu after Rennyo (1415-1499), the Priest responsible for rejuvenating the faith, retired. His followers settled around him, building homes and eventually mighty, Self contained fortress protected by it's own moat and guarded by hundreds of Ikko monks. In 1570 and 1576, Oda Nobunga laid siege to the fortress, only to be seen off by the Ikko Ikki and their allies. A second attempt in 1576 was successful, as Nobunga gradually strangled the fortress, cutting off its outlying area's and isolating it from any help. After 4 years of the siege, the Honganji capitulated in 1580.

    This building can only be constructed by the Ikko Ikki and cannot be used by any other clan.
