Twenty-five Sanmai-shiki - Nijyugozanmai-shiki

Japanese: 二十五三昧式 - にじゅうござんまいしき
Twenty-five Sanmai-shiki - Nijyugozanmai-shiki
It is also called "Yokokawa Shuryogon'in Twenty-Five Samadhi Ceremonies." It is said to have been written by Genshin, but the exact date is unclear. It was created for the Twenty-Five Samadhi Association, a group of Nembutsu practitioners that was formed in 986 (Kanwa 2) at Yokokawa Shuryogon'in on Mount Hiei with Genshin as its leader. After the group was formed, one of its comrades, Yoshishige Yasutane, drafted "Twenty-Five Samadhi Kisho," which is related in content to "Jokisho" created by Genshin in 988 (Eien 2) and is also deeply connected to "Ojoyoshu." The text is divided into three parts, but its original form is unclear.

《横川首楞厳院(よかわしゆりようごんいん)二十五三昧式》ともいう。源信撰と伝えるが不明。986年(寛和2)源信を指導者として比叡山横川首楞厳院で結成した念仏者集団二十五三昧会のために作成されたもの。結成後に同志の慶滋保胤(よししげのやすたね)が《二十五三昧起請》を起草し,988年(永延2)源信が作成した《定起請》と内容的にもつらなり,《往生要集》とも深くかかわっている。本文は三つの部分に分けられるが,当初の形は明らかでない。
