<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Nyūdō shinnō''' (入道親王, lit. "ordination prince") is a title bestowed to [[Imperial House of Japan|imperial sons]] who left the court and took tonsure as Buddhist monks.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Eliot |first1=Charles |title=Japanese Buddhism |date=2014 |publisher=Routledge |isbn=9781317792734}}</ref><br />

Ordination resulted in relinquishment of imperial status and devotion to the welfare of the imperial family through prayer and ritual service. Other names used to designate the same status include '''Nyūdō-no-miya''' (入道宮, lit. "Imperial ordination") and '''Ubasoku-no-miya''' (優婆塞宮, lit. "Imperial [[upāsaka]]").<ref>{{cite book |last1=Hidematsu |first1=Wada |title=官職要解 (Kanshoku yōkai) |date=1902 |publisher=Meiji Shoin |location=Tokyo |isbn=978-4061586215 |language=Japanese}}</ref><br />
<br />
This title was reserved for those who had already been declared imperial prince by imperial proclamation (親王宣下). By contrast, those declared prince after ordination held the title ''[[hosshinnō]]'' (法親王, lit. "Dharma prince").<ref>{{cite web |last1=Shibayama |first1=Saeko |title=Ōe no Masafusa and the Convergence of the “Ways”: The Twilight of Early Chinese Literary Studies and the Rise of Waka Studies in the Long Twelfth Century in Japan |url=https://academiccommons.columbia.edu/doi/10.7916/D8M61SCH |publisher=Columbia University |date=2012}}</ref><br />
