| Ignorance | Jp: mumyo. The inability to comprehend the Buddha’s wisdom.
Because of their ignorance sentient beings are unable to comprehend
Amida Buddha’s wisdom and compassion and thus harbour doubts towards
him and his teaching. Thus in Shin Buddhism ignorance is seen to be
synonymous with doubt. Ignorance is the fundamental cause of the cycle
of birth and death (Sanskrit: samsara).
