Great Faith, Great Wisdom ― Practice and Awakening in the Pure Land Sutras of Mahayana Buddhism
商品資訊
商品簡介
An inspiring and practical commentary on three sutras at the center of East Asian Buddhist faith.
Ratnaguna presents a commentary on the Pure Land Sutras, which describe Sukhavati, the archetypal "land of bliss" presided over by the Buddha Amitabha, the focus of devotion for many East Asian Buddhists. Ratnaguna explores the practices that enable the practitioner to be "reborn" in this ideal world, and outlines how this can be understood in both a literal and metaphoric sense. So "rebirth in Sukhavati" can take place in this very life, and dwelling there can be understood as a description of the Enlightened Mind. He also explores faith-imagination as the faculty that perceives reality.
Using a practical and imaginative approach, this book will appeal to both practicing Buddhists as well as anyone interested in Buddhism from a practical point of view.
Includes new translations of the three Pure Land sutras by Buddhist scholar Sraddhapa.
Ratnaguna is a member of the Triratna Buddhist Order and has been practicing Buddhism for 35 years. He is a director of Breathworks in Manchestera social enterprise organization that helps people who live with chronic pain and other long-term health conditions.
Sraddhapa is also a member of the Triratna Buddhist Order. He lives and works in Norway and teaches at the Oslo Buddhist Centre.
