Buddhism

“After the one thought-moment in which, realizing the transience of birth-and-death in our own flesh, we once genuinely and directly entrust ourselves through saying Namu-amida-butsu, the self is no longer the self. Then, as our hearts are Amida Buddha’s heart, our bodily actions Amida Buddha’s actions, and our words Amida Buddha’s words, the life we are living is Amida Buddha’s life.
