Weekly Wasan - Episode 31 - Kōsō Wasan (Hymns of the Pure Land Masters) T'an-luan 39-44


Listen Later

Hi Dharma friends,

We're continuing with Shinran Shonin's verses on Master T'an-luan of China (476-542 CE). Today we encounter the marvelous image of ice and water - how the ice of our blind passions melts into the water of virtues through the power of Amida's Vow and ultimately flows into the great ocean of Enlightenment.  This analogy was beloved by Shinran and subsequent Shin Buddhist masters and teachers ever since.  Enjoy these Wasan verses, and please tell your friends about the podcast.

Palms together, Gary
