Jones Department of Religion and Religious Education CBJones57@aol.com The teaching of Joodoshinshuu (or Shin Buddhism) in the American undergraduate curriculum has been hampered from the outset by a lack of variety in available teaching materials. One can readily find materials by and about Shinran Shoonin (1173-1263), the founder of the school, and increasingly one may obtain materials by and about Rennyo (1415-1499), the "second founder." Anything beyond that has been exceeding rare and generally not useful or convenient for classroom use. Esben Andreasen, a Danish high school teacher who has long studied Japanese Buddhism and collaborated on projects with Ian Reader, has corrected this deficiency with a remarkable compilation of source materials on Shin Buddhism designed expressly to expose students to a wide variety of texts from the Shin tradition.

    Extractions: Naturalness Kenryo Kanamatsu World Wisdom ISBN: 0-941532-29-1 Price - $12.95 Shin, or Pure Land, is the flower of Japanese Buddhism. Although it is less well known in the West than Zen, Vipassana or Tibetan Buddhism, its message of holy freedom, or naturalness, which arises when man conforms with sincere attachment to the Eternal saving will of the Buddha has been an illuminating way of spiritual awakening for multitudes of Japanese people since the sixth century when Buddhism came to Japan. Kanamatsu's Naturalness, written in 1949, is more than an introduction to the essence of Shin Buddhism. It is a profound and enlightened meditation on the relationship between man and Amida Buddha, who is pure mercy and whose Name is a vehicle of Nirvanic Reality. Combining the erudition of a philosopher with the sensitivity of a poet, Kanamatsu leads the reader into the heart of the subject where man may unite with the Buddha-Nature even in the ordinary activities of everyday life. The deep compassion and beautiful simplicity of this classic work which like a haiku speaks volumes with few words will appeal to all people who seek a spiritual antidote to the artificiality and ugliness that causes much of the suffering in our world. Very few books have appeared in the West on the Shin tradition, yet D.T. Suzuki recognized as the foremost exponent of Buddhism to Western culture has characterized Shin Buddhism as Japan''s major religious contribution to the West. Kanamatsu's Naturalness allows the reader to experience that "even here lies the other shore waiting to be reached yes, here is the Eternal Present, not distant, not anywhere else."

    http://www.geocities.com/shin_sangha/jodo_ltp.html
    
    Extractions: The program is aimed at deepening our appreciation of everyday living and its meaning, understood through the Dharma. It is a process of awakening to reality, here and now, and the stirrings of gratitude from deep within regardless of what "I" perceive as the experience. The words, Namu Amida Butsu, are not dualistic, but are the expressions of life itself as a gift, calling/embracing me within this unrepeatable moment of living. This appreciation comes naturally as one listens to the Dharma and reflects, introspects, shares, and lives, cherishing all of life's interconnections. Important Notes

51. Spirituality & Health: Shin Buddhism
    shin buddhism Bits of Rubble Turn into Gold by Taitetsu Unno presents an authoritative overview of this popular school of Buddhism.  
    http://www.spiritualityhealth.com/newsh/items/bookreview/item_5338.html
    
    Extractions: ISBN 0-385-50469-1 Recently retired, Taitetsu Unno was the Jill Ker Conway Professor of Religion at Smith College. He travels throughout the world as a lecturer on Japanese Buddhism, religion, and culture. Dr. Unno is America's foremost authority on Pure Land Buddhism which dates back to the sixth century in Japan. While Zen developed in monasteries, this path had more appeal among the common people. The author's explanation of the subtitle is as follows: "Buddhism is a path of supreme optimism, for one of its basic tenets is that no human life or experience is to be wasted, abandoned, or forgotten, but all should be transformed into a source of vibrant life, deep wisdom, and compassionate living. This is the connotation of the classical statement that sums up the goal of Buddhist life: 'Transform delusion into enlightenment.' On the level of everyday experience, Shin Buddhists speak of this transformation as 'bits of rubble turn into gold.' " This overview by Dr. Unno contains four parts: Transformation, Unfolding Awareness, Life as Creative Art, and Expanding Horizons. One of the central elements of Shin Buddhism is deep hearing which enables individuals to awaken to the boundless compassion that sustains all of life. The Pure Land tradition emphasizes the inner discipline of self-cultivation which aims at the unfolding of humility and generosity. The daily intoning of "I entrust myself to Amida Buddha" enables individuals to grow in the realization of the true self.

    Extractions: Buddhist Homeschool Send Comments Core Page Shin Buddhism originated in Japan and is a Pureland sect of Buddhism. Many of the Pureland sects believe that it is next to impossible to reach enlightenment in this world, but that if one may be reborn in the Pureland where there are no distractions on the path to enlightenment. The Pureland is the land of Amida Buddha, Buddha of wisdom and compassion. Amida Buddha is not an historical buddha. Shinran (1173-1262) founded Shin Buddhism. Shinran was trained as a monk in the Tendai sect and also studied under Honen. He lived at a time of turmoil in Japan when many Buddhist reformers were persecuted and exiled. Shinran broke with the tradition of Buddhist leaders having a monastic life - he married and had children. He thus set the precedence for non-monastic lay practice in Shin, though Shinran considered himself to be neither monk nor lay. Shinran taught that one can be reborn in the Pureland by uttering "Namu Amida Butsu" with a true heart. "Namu Amida Butsu" is called nembutsu and is an invocation of the name of Amida Buddha. Shinran was not the first to teach nembutsu, but he put primary emphasis on nembutsu making it the primary practice of Shin Buddhism. Shinran also taught that Nembutsu is a manifestation of Shinjin - a state free of the world's dichotomy. He believed that one should not chant nembutsu simply to gain enlightenment for oneself.

Timeline Jōdo Shinshū (淨土眞宗 "True Pure Land School"), also known as Shin Buddhism, is a branch of Pure Land Buddhism derived from the teachings of the Japanese ex- Tendai preacher Shinran edit Shinran originally practiced as a low-status monk, in a Tendai nembutsu worship hall. Then, just one-year before finishing the twenty-one year Tendai training course, he left the temple on Mount Hiei in disillusionment over his capacity for spiritual practice and also in disgust at widespread monastic corruption. Following a vision Shinran sought out and studied with Honen (1133-1212), founder of the Jodo Shu sect and another Tendai drop-out, who taught the exclusive and single practice of saying the name of Amida Buddha . Six years later Honen and several of his disciples, including Shinran, were split up and exiled to different parts of Japan. Shinran then spent many years traveling throughout Japan and preaching to the peasant class, who found Shin Buddhism to be attractive due to its non-exclusivity and simple practice (see

    Extractions: The Unique Potential of Shin Buddhism in Western Society Time does not permit me to go into detail on my life experience that led me to Buddhism and to Shin Buddhism. However, suffice it to say that I began as a fundamentalist Baptist and through a series of experiences finally arrived home in Shin Buddhism. It is against this background that I would present the unique potential of Shin Buddhism in American society, as an alternative path for those seeking a more realistic understanding of the self and a more personally satisfying approach to life. I can only enumerate a few points which I believe have significance for the propagation of Shin Buddhism in American society. In the first place, Shin Buddhism is a layperson’s religion. It was directed by Shinran to lay people, farmers, merchants, hunters, townspeople who could not leave their social obligation to enter monastic orders or attain the exalted spiritual experiences achieved by eminent monks. Shinran challenged the elitist religion of his day by offering a way which involved a depth of spiritual experience within the context of ordinary life. His understanding of the path of deliverance begins with the recognition of one’s ineradicable, passion-ridden nature, defiled by all kinds of evils, as the basis of conflict and violence.
