This review is from: Honen's Senchakushu: Passages on the Selection of the Nembutsu in the Original Vow (Senchaku Hongan Nembutsu Shu) (Classics in East Asian Buddhism) (Hardcover)
Among the relatively few works available in English on the Pure Land teachings of Honen-bo Genku, this is an essential read. It could be considered a veritable manifesto of Honen's thought, particularly concerning the selection process involved in adopting Pure Land faith and practice (Nembutsu). This work is thus indispensible for anyone seeking to understand, and perhaps practice the teachings of this great pioneering Buddhist Master. This is a very accessable translation, which includes an excellent historical and doctrinal introduction, and a very helpful glossary.
