Wikipedia definition
2. Ikkō​Ikkō-shu (一向宗, ikkōshū) is usually viewed as a small, militant, offshoot from Jodo Shinshu Buddhism though the name has a complex history. Originally Ikkō-shu was a small antinomian sect founded by Ikkō Shunjo and similar to Ippen's Ji-shu. However when the religious and military-political establishment began to crack down on the Amida-pietist movement little distinction was made between the various factions.
