1. Shin Course
   Al Bloom s selfstudy course for exploring shin buddhism.  
   http://www.shindharmanet.com/course/
   
   Extractions: Professor Emeritus - Department of Religion, University of Hawaii Send your questions or comments to Dr. Bloom. The intention of this course is to enable the reader to explore Shin Buddhism, also known as Jodo Shinshu, historically and in modern context. Readers may respond to the content as they desire. Hopefully, it will stimulate thought and enrich their understanding of the teaching. Self study questions are provided for personal use to check understanding of the material. Any insights and reflections will be appreciated. Shin Buddhism is a Pure Land denomination originating in Japan in the 13th century, though Pure Land tradition and teaching has a long history going back to India. This tradition originated with Shinran (1173-1263). He studied initially on Mount Hiei, a Tendai Monastery, and later with the Pure Land teacher Honen (1133-1212). Living among the common people, he interpreted the compassion of Amida Buddha and the Pure Land Sutras to meet the spiritual needs of ordinary people, peasants, hunters, fishermen and merchants who could not leave their homes to engage in monastic life. He taught the way of trust in Amida Buddha's Vows as the basis for ultimate enlightenment of even the most lowly and evil person.

2. Buddhism - Jodo Shinsu - Is Shin Buddhism The Same As Christianity?
   An analysis of the similarities and differences between Pure Land Buddhism and Christianity, by Rev. Philipp Karl Eidmann.  
   http://www.seattlebetsuin.com/Is_Shin_Buddhism_the_same_as_Christianity.htm
   
   Extractions: Is Shin Buddhism the same as Christianity? by Rev. Philipp Karl Eidmann In the sixteenth century European Christian missionaries first came to China and Japan. In meeting the Buddhists of China and Japan, the missionaries saw many things that reminded them of Christianity. They saw similarities in the Buddhist and Christian services. They thought they also saw similarities in Christian and Buddhist books and doctrines. The early Christian missionaries were disturbed by these apparent similarities. They decided that Satan had invented a counterfeit Christianity to lead people astray and to keep them from following the true Christian teachings. Later scholars discovered that in ancient days there had been Nestorian Christian churches in China. After this discovery, some Westerners came to believe that the similarities between Buddhism and Christianity were the result of the influence of Nestorian Christians. Many Christians have thought they saw ancient Christian influence in the teachings of every sect of Buddhism. However, they have always held that this influence was strongest in the teachings of the Pure Realm schools of China and Japan. There are a number of schools and sects which follow the Pure Realm doctrines. They differ in many minor respects, but they are all based upon the same scriptures and commentaries. About one-half of the Buddhists of China and Japan are followers of these schools.

   Jodo Shinshu Buddhism, or shin buddhism, is based upon the teachings and Modern shin buddhism The Living Dharma Library Dharma Talks and Articles.  
   http://web.mit.edu/stclair/www/amida.html
   
   Extractions: Boston Shinshu News Jodo Shinshu Buddhism , or Shin Buddhism, is based upon the teachings and writings of Shinran Shonin (1173-1262). Shinran expounded the "True Pure Land Way", or the path whose "practice" is total faith in and reliance upon Amida Buddha, the Buddha of Infinite Light and Life. The Collected Works of Shinran include poems, letters, and his great treatise, Kyo Gyo Shin Sho . Outwardly, this faith is expressed by the grateful recitation of the Nembutsu, pronounced "Namu Amida Butsu" in Japanese. For a summary of Shinran's teachings, see the Tannisho , a short book composed by his follower Yuienbo with key quotes directly from Shinran. Tannisho represents Jodo Shinshu Buddhism in perhaps its most distilled and yet most simple and accessible form. Jodo Shinshu Buddhism teaches that faith in Amida Buddha cuts the bonds to our negative karma from the infinite past and into the infinite future. It is the faith behind the Nembutsu that is a person's link to Amida Buddha, who the Larger Sutra says created a "Pure Land" of infinite positivity and zero negativity where people go after they die, wherein they will realize full enlightenment (nirvana) and buddhahood. Amida Buddha was revealed to the world in three great Mahayana sutras attributed to the historical Buddha, Shakyamuni, who lived and taught in India ca. 563-483 BCE. See the links to these sutras above.
