Buddhist Psalms translated from the Japanese of Shinran Shonin

"Buddhist Psalms" translated from the Japanese of Shinran Shonin, a work by S. Yamabe and L. Adams Beck, offers a window into the heart of Mahayana Buddhism. Through a series of heartfelt psalms, the book explores themes of faith, doubt, and the pursuit of enlightenment, particularly as understood through the teachings of Shinran. The writings focus on reliance on Amida Buddha's grace for salvation, the acceptance of one's own imperfections, and the yearning for compassion and wisdom. Each psalm serves as a prayer and a meditation, guiding readers toward a deeper understanding of their spiritual path and the promise of peace in the Pure Land through sincere devotion.
