Interfusing Nembutsu school
Tibetan Buddhist Encyclopedia is now 14 years old
Our Encyclopedia recently received a wonderful opportunity for a major renewal on its 14th birthday . After many years of growing our Encyclopedia had become bit slow and sometimes even decided not to answer when people knocked on the door.
A very big thank you and blessings to Dmytro Rudiy (rudiy.nl) for his great work in upgrading the server, website and all of the infrastructure and helping make TBE fast and reliable again for everyone!
We kindly ask our readers to help us cover the cost of this important upgrade and also help with the ongoing costs of keeping the Encyclopedia alive and freely available.

Interfusing Nembutsu school
融通念仏宗 (Jpn YuzuNembutsu-shu)
A branch of the Nembutsu school in Japan, founded on the teachings of Ryonin (1073-1132).
"Interfusing" here means the union of self and others, a reference to the doctrine of the school that one's own recitation of the Nembutsu (the invocation of Amida Buddha's name) influences all others,
and that other people's recitation of the Nembutsu influences oneself, interacting to help bring about the rebirth of all in the Pure Land.
This doctrine is based on the idea that all people and phenomena are mutually related and interdependent.
The Interfusing Nembutsu movement spread throughout the country with Shuraku-ji temple (later renamed Dainembutsu-ji) in Settsu Province as its center. Dainembutsu-ji is now its head temple.
