Title: The Priest and His Disciples (Shaw Translation)
Author: Hyakuz Kurata
Narrator: Expatriate
Length: 5 hrs 44 mins
Language: English
Release date: 1/1/2017
Publisher: LibriVox
Genres: Audio Theatre, Drama
Publisher's Summary:
At the age of twenty-six (at the height of the Great War in Europe), the religious pilgrim and maverick Kurata Hyakuz wrote a profoundly philosophical play called "The Priest & His Disciples" ("Shukke to sono deshi"). This stage play is based on the life and teachings of the 13th century Buddhist priest Shinran (1173-1263) and quickly became immensely popular.
Shinran, the historical founder of the True Pure Land School of Buddhism (Jdo Shinsh), encounters the poor family of Hino Saemon and his wife Okane, and converses with them about how to live in circumstances of change and turmoil and hardship.
Most of the ideas represented as Shinran's are really Kurata's own philosophies, an amalgam of Eastern and Western ideas adapted by his own iconoclastic spirit to the tumultuous times of early twentieth-century Japan. - Summary by Expatriate
