Gratitude
I'm just a bombu, what do I know?
In Amida Buddha's shining Light
My foolishness is exposed,
My blind passions irradiated.
Truly, Amida's Infinite Wisdom
And His Great Compassion
That knows no bounds or limits
Shines on this stumbling fool.
I cling to Amida's sleeve,
Evil karma dogging me
For lifetimes long since passed,
But His gift of Salvation is at hand.
I honor Amida Buddha,
I worship Amida Buddha,
I sing His Holy Name in gratitude
From the depths of my blighted heart.
As I think on Amida's Primal Vow,
I realize that it was made
For me alone, as said Master Shinran,
And as I say now, as well.
Grasped and never to be abandoned
I am in the Orb of Amida's Light,
Saved forever from birth-and-death,
Buddhahood at my final breath!
Namu Amida Butsu
Thank You, Amida Buddha!

The editorial policy of this website is to present only the orthodox teachings of Jodo Shinshu Buddhism. Before I link to any other website, I investigate that website to make sure that they share the same attitude. I reject any website that presents false or divergent teachings, or that links to other websites that present false or divergent teachings.
