Zen Buddhism and Shingon Buddhism are two notable sects of Japanese Buddhism. Pure Land, or Amidist, Buddhism is also significant in this country. Pure Land has its roots in India and China, however. Zen Buddhism emphasizes meditating for enlightenment. Shingon Buddhism is a type of Pure Land Buddhism and is esoteric and relies on early Buddhist Tantras.
