Tóm tắt : | Unno (religion, emeritus, Smith Coll.) follows his useful River of Fire, River of Water with this further discussion of Shin Buddhism. A form of Pure Land Buddhism begun in 12th-century Japan, Shin is widely practiced in Japan but is less well known in this country than forms such as Tibetan Buddhism and Zen. Centered on the recitation of the nembutsu, or the name of Amida Buddha, the simple practice of Shin is available to people in all walks of life and offers a framework for Buddhist practice to those for whom the monastically centered rigor demanded by other traditions is not practical or desirable. This book moves beyond the introductory River of Fire, River of Water to give a more comprehensive view of Shin practice. Those expecting a textbook approach, however, will find instead an accessibly written account of the spirit of Shin practice that will appeal to general readers. This is not an essential title but makes an excellent companion to Unno's earlier book. Given the book's reasonable price, the relative scarcity of titles on Shin Buddhism, and the wider following it is likely to attract in the West as a simpler and more accessible form of practice, this book is an excellent choice for most collections.
