Commemorative Service of Shinran Shonin's Birth
At the beginning I was worried this was going to be one of those Dharma talks - the "be nice to other people, we're all interdependent" fluff types - but then I was pleasantly surprised when Sensei brought OtherPower back into it at the end. Wonderful talk. Namo Amida Butsu🙏
I have studied Buddhism for quite a while now and Pureland Buddhism really appeals to me,do Pureland Buddhists have to take formal refuge vows?
This was insightful. I'm currently learning about the Pure Land, so your perspective has helped me.
Excellent lecture! 🙏
Excellent lecture! Thank you.

What a wonderful lecture! This is the best longform lecture I've ever seen from the BCA (as opposed to short Dharma talks). More please! I like the idea of death as the "completion" of life as a bombu. Namo Amida Butsu🙏
Thank you Sensei! It is so important we talk about Shinjin, it is the most essential part of our tradition! You and Yuki Sugahara are doing great and important work. Namo Amida Butsu🙏
Namo Oya-Sama🙏

Wonderful talk! As a student of philosophy, this really spoke to me! Namo Amida Butsu
I had no idea there is Mt Sumeru symbolism in the Obutsudan! Thank you! Namo Amida Butsu🙏
Thank you Sensei! A wonderful talk, I could really relate to the little boy - lost without Oya-Sama! Namo Amida Butsu🙏
I participated in the chanting at the morning service at the Nishi Honganji on my 29th birthday. Religious high is exactly right. Namo Amida Butsu🙏

I stopped at "mythological". Amitabha Buddha is real. What's wrong with you?
"Yes". Yes only. Not "and a no". It's a real place.
Each and every Pure Land tradition traces it's root to the Indian schools of Madhyamaka and Yogaćara. According to one of the fundamental Yogaćara texts "Buddhabhūmyupadeśa" ("The Interpretation of Buddha Land") Pure Land is purified, enlightened stream of consciousness. Because everything is "mind only" the answer provided by this text is clear: it is a real physical place (Transformation body of the Buddha) and it is not (Enjoyment body of the Buddha) at the same time.
Thank you i use this as a chant along when i do my sitting at home. So beautyfull do all my other chantings(shoshinge, juseige) translared to german because i want to understand what i chant, but iwould have never thought of translating this. Perfection. Greetings and best wishes from Germany Namu Amida Butsu
Being accepted as you are is so important. That doesn't mean that you don't strive for improvement; rather, it encourages and embraces both my good and not so good parts. Thank you so much!
👍
Thanks Sensei, for boiling down the essence of this for a bombu like myself 😊 Na Man Da Bu 🙏🏼📿
Thanks Dean! Nice to hear from you,. Hope to see you again soon!
I've been reading/watching lots of material on Jodo Shinshu, but this short, simple explanation struck me emotionally more than my previous studies. Much appreciated.
Thank you for your kind words, they really mean a lot. Gassho (palms together)
You will find a very confused Dutch Belgian Japanese home. Hima dattara, zettai asobi ni kite kudasai. Really.
Sounds like a plan! Thank you for reaching out!
Ototosan! If you ever find your self destitute in Europe, find me.
Very helpful! Thank you!
Thank you...this teaching was 🙏 Namo Amitabha Buddha 🙏
Wonderful talk, thank you Sensei! Am I right in thinking you are trying to explain the Three Buddha bodies without using difficult Sanskrit terms? Namu Amida Butsu🙏
Waiting for you to reopen ...
Nice talk ...
Those two men are NOT good role models ...just over paid actors ... How about Michio Kaku ?

Thank you for the message. I have been learning a lot through your podcasts and the recorded services here. Since this was your theme: Can you imagine the Nembutsu path without a temple? Or without community? I'm thinking of people who don't have other people exploring this path in the town where they live. Now that people are connecting via the internet to this Dharma as you mentioned - what's a good "place" for them to really connect? Many thanks again for keeping up these messages and teachings.
Thank you for your comment, Yotin san. Just an added thought to your question, which is that this Dharma message was made with the idea that peoples' connection to the temple might be getting weaker due to the pandemic (people who have access to a temple). But with the internet and social media, the sangha of the new age will most likely include a web sangha, not bound by physical location constraints. That has already begun to a certain extent. If you like, please check the BCA website found here: www.buddhistchurchesofamerica.org/ This has a lot of information that can introduce you to Shin Buddhist circles. Also try these: jsinternational.org/ everydaybuddhist.teachable.com/ Thank you for your message! Gassho.
@@southernalamedacountybuddh4271 Many thanks, sensei. I'm glad you have an idea where I can find out more and connect.
I can't believe this short conversation happened just some months ago. Your pointers led me to the Jodoshinshu Correspondence Course and I am so glad that I have the chance to learn and connect in this way. So again, many thanks for your presence and for all that you share!
Hope you will re-open soon ...
Nanmandabu 🙏

Sensei, imagine the avidly-listening audience, focus on them, get absorbed in the content - and you will stop being self-conscious. I learned to speak to cameras when creating online classes a decade ago. Now, I feel the connection to all my learners, I 'see' them with my heart, and they are 100% there in person with me, no matter where they happen to be in the 'real world'. You can do it!
Ohayo ..
Would like to visit the church after it reopens ...
WoW FanSTASTIC EDITING AND FLOW A++++. Great segments and explinations. Great work
Thank you so much 😊
Nice voice and chanting. namo amidabutsu from Singapore. Gassho.
Thank you very much. Gassho
Hope your church will re-open soon ...
