Publisher's Synopsis

Buddhist Psalms: Translated From The Japanese Of Shinran Shonin is a book that contains a collection of Buddhist hymns and prayers, originally written in Japanese by Shinran Shonin, a revered Buddhist monk and teacher from the 13th century. The book has been translated into English by Shinrin Shonin, who has provided a faithful and accessible rendering of the original text. The psalms in this book are meant to be recited or chanted as a form of spiritual practice, and they cover a range of themes, including the nature of existence, the impermanence of life, and the role of compassion and wisdom in achieving enlightenment. The book also includes an introduction that provides context for Shinran Shonin's life and teachings, as well as an explanation of the significance of the psalms in the context of Buddhist practice. Overall, Buddhist Psalms is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Buddhist spirituality and the practice of meditation and mindfulness.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
