Ryōnin Life story
Ryōnin, (born 1072—died 1132), Japanese Buddhist leader who founded the Yūzū Nembutsu (“All-Permeating Amida Buddha”) sect of True Pure Land Buddhism. He initiated the renewal of Buddhist thought in the Kamakura period (1192–1333), when other new schools of Buddhism, such as Zen and Nichiren, also arose.
