Sanjō wasan (The Three Collections of Hymns)
三帖和讃
Some three hundred and fifty four-line Japanese hymns that spread the doctrine among followers who could not read Chinese and form, with the Shōshinge, the core of the school's liturgy. They celebrate Amida and his land, the seven patriarchs and the situation of beings in the final Dharma age, culminating in Gutoku's hymns of lament and reflection.
