Ch H -Ji (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Sanshinzan Ch h -ji is a temple of the Tendai sect in Kainan, Wakayama Prefecture, Japan. It was established by Emperor Ichij 's instruction in 1000.Ch h -ji's Main Hall, Pagoda and Daimon are National Treasure of Japan.Tendai is a Japanese school of Mahayana Buddhism, a descendant of the Chinese Tiantai or Lotus Sutra school.Although Tendai (Chin., T'ien-t'ai) has the reputation of being a major denomination in Japanese history, and the most comprehensive and diversified school of Chinese Buddhism, it is almost unknown in the West. This meagre presence is in marked contrast to the vision of the founder of the movement in China, T'ien-t'ai Chih-i (538-597), who provided a religious framework which seemed suited to adapt to other cultures, to evolve new practices, and to universalize Buddhism.
