of the Hōjō clan was the eighth ''shikken'' (officially ''regent (of shogun)'', but ''de facto'' ruler of Japan) of the Kamakura shogunate (reigned 1268–84), known for leading the Japanese forces against the invasion of the Mongols and for spreading Zen Buddhism and by extension Bushido among the warrior class. Tokimune was known to rule with an iron fist, and also eventually monopolized at one point all three titles of power, namely holding offices of ''Tokuso'' (head of clan, since birth), and ''Rensho'' (Vice Regent). During his lifetime, the following seats of power: Japanese Emperor, Imperial Regent (''Sessho''), and Imperial Chief Advisor ''Kampaku'', and the Shogun, all had been completely marginalized by the Hojo Regents. == Life == Born as the eldest son of the regent and Tokuso Tokiyori of the Adachi House, Tokimune was born as ''tokuso'' and groomed to become the next ruler of Japan, and became a ''shikken'' at age 18. It is due to him that Zen Buddhism became firmly established in Kamakura, then later in Kyoto, and in the whole of Japan, especially among the warrior class. In 1271, he banished Nichiren to Sado Island. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hōjō Tokimune」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
