高徳院の宗旨
高徳院（正式名称：大異山高徳院清浄泉寺）は法然上人(1133-1212)を開祖とする浄土宗の仏教寺院です。法然は極楽浄土の教主である阿弥陀如来に信仰をおきました。阿弥陀如来は性別、年齢、社会的地位、または道徳的観点にかかわらず万人の救済意を本願としています。阿弥陀の名前を称えればつまり、南無阿弥陀仏という形の念仏を唱えれば誰しも阿弥陀によって受け入れられ臨終に際して極楽浄土に運ばれます。これは本質的な浄土宗の教えです。

The Message of Kotokuin Temple
Kotokuin (full name: Daiizan Kotokuin Shojosenji) is a temple of the Pure Land (Jodo) school of Buddhism founded by Honen Shonin (1133–1212). Honen placed his faith in Amida Buddha, the Lord of the Pure Land, who vowed countless eons ago to save all persons without regard to their gender, age, social status, or moral standing. All those who invoke Amida’s name (the nenbutsu, usually in the form “Namu Amida Butsu”) are accepted by the Buddha, who will come at the time of their death to take them to the Pure Land. This is the essential teaching of Pure Land Buddhism.
