Amitabha - the Only True Reality

This samsaric existence
Is completely unreal,
However real it may seem.
Amitabha, the Dharmakaya
Is the only true reality.

Namo Amitabhaya!

Only the Name Remains

Only the Name remains
By the Amida's grace.
And the world disappears
With all its evils and fears.

Recite with your voice and heart,
Recite with the absence of doubt,
Here and now you'll be freed
Safe at Amida's feet.

What a fortune it is!
The Land of Amida's Bliss
By Buddha's Great Vow assured,
Eternally joyful and pure.

And the world disappears
With all its evils and fears.
Only the Name remains
By the Amida's grace.

Born in Pure Land

I am the one to be born in Pure Land, Not this body in suffering clad, Not this mind like wild elephant mad — I am the one to be born...
