| | Rennyo the Restorer |
 | | The persecutions and at times outright confrontations this brought on involved Rennyo in one struggle after another, with the result there was nowhere he could take haven permanently, and throughout his life he was forced to move constantly from place to place. |
 | | The move is significant, for the province is where Rennyo would establish his first group of loyal followers among the people of Kanegamori, and it was here that he first began to develop his particular style of propagation. |
 | | Among the temples he established are: Kozen-ji, Deguchi, Kawachi province, installing Kojun (1474-1497) as resident minister; Kyogyo-ji; Shinsho-in,* Kai-no-ura, Izumi, with Shinsho-ji Joson as resident minister. |
