Soga Ryojin, one of the most significant successors of modern Shinshū-Buddhism’s spiritualism, proposed a view centering on the intention that desires rebirth in the Pureland. This view was derived from Shinran’s "Three Aspects of Faith". What concerned Soga Ryojin was the matter referred to as self-awakening to the belief of salvation by the Absolute One. Along with this he held that believing is awakening. His view is similar to that of Kiyozawa Manshi, who believed that it is indispensable to have a firm foothold. This not only brought about a revolution in Shinshū-Buddhism, it also encouraged a revival of the thought of Shinran in the modem age.
