DescriptionShinnyo-do, the Main Hall of Shinshogokurakuji, enshrines Amida Nyorai as its principal image. Known as the “Nodding Amida,” the image has long attracted devotion as an Amida especially associated with the salvation of women. Although the temple is famous for autumn leaves, the interior retains the calm of a Tendai temple and conveys the peace and pure stillness of Amida faith.
