A Study of Shin Buddhism is a comprehensive book written by Gessho Sasaki that delves into the history, philosophy, and practice of Shin Buddhism. The book starts with an introduction to the life of Shinran, the founder of Shin Buddhism, and his teachings on the Pure Land and the role of Amida Buddha in salvation. Sasaki then explores the key concepts of Shin Buddhism, such as the Three Minds, the Four Modes of Practice, and the Three Treasures. The book also covers the development of Shin Buddhism in Japan and its spread to other parts of the world, including the United States. Sasaki provides insights into the social and cultural context in which Shin Buddhism emerged and evolved, and how it has adapted to different environments over time. In addition to the historical and philosophical aspects of Shin Buddhism, Sasaki also discusses the practical aspects of the faith, including the role of chanting, meditation, and community in spiritual growth. He also addresses common misconceptions about Shin Buddhism and offers guidance on how to approach the faith with an open mind and heart. Overall, A Study of Shin Buddhism is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning about this unique and influential form of Buddhism. It provides a detailed and accessible overview of the history, philosophy, and practice of Shin Buddhism, and offers insights into how this faith has evolved over time and across cultures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
