Thank you for sharing this 🙏

Absolutely beautiful! Thank you so much for giving foreigners like me the opportunity to learn about authentic Jodo Shu Buddhism, even though we do not live in Japan! I cannot express in words how grateful I am. Namu Amida Butsu! Gassho 🙏

Hi, I am a jodoshinshu buddhist from Singapore (Im ethnic Chinese). It is good to see Sensei trying to make chanting easier to learn for westerners. Gassho

THANK YOU very much for this! I wish we had a Jodo Shu temple in Northern California. The Jodo Shu Priests are always so helpful and accommodating. I have known some in Hawaii and they always just want to help you be a better pureland Buddhist. The priest in LA is like this too. Very kind and very helpful.

What an excellent series of videos! Thank you so very much. Namu Amidabu!

Thank you for this resource. It is greatly appreciated.

Very practical and accessible version of Otsutome...thank you!

thank you for posting this beautiful chanting in English! It really supports my faith to have this kind of of support since I live far from a Jodo Shu temple. Arigato Gozaimashita!

This is so special... I thought he was going to chant in Japanese!

Namu Amida Butsu! 🙏 Just a question Kasahara-san.. It is required in Jodo shu to perform the eye-opening ceremony to a Amida statue?

Each sect of Japanese Buddhism holds eye-opening services for new Buddhist statues. Jodo Shu also does this. However, this assumes that there is a Jodo Shu temple near you where you can request the service. If there is no Jodo Shu temple nearby, I don't think you need to do it. In my experience, a statue of Amida Buddha symbolizes Amida Buddha, not because you perform a formal eye-opening ceremony, but because you feel and worship Amida Buddha through the statue. The ritual is only a measure to support the Nembutsu belief.

@@rinkaian_channel5610 Thanks Reverend for the answer. Unfortunately in Italy we don't have temples Jodo shu or shinshu, so it's impossible to have a direct contact with a priest. I hope that this situation will change in future, in the meantime I will refer to your website and the lessons available in English. Namu Amida Butsu 🙏🙏

The only necessary and sufficient condition for birth into the Pureland is to call the name of Amida from your heart. Gender doesn’t matter.Thank you.

Danny Lee of course everyone is welcome! Amita Buddha welcomes everyone in the PureLand. Demons devas spirits. As long they are good and follow the teachings of Buddha shakyamuni. And the live the way of Buddha showed us.

Sounds funny in English
