Nembutsu and Zen: the Sayings of Zen Master Zuiken

Let's start to appreciate life by reading from Nembutsu and Zen, the sayings of Nembutsu Zen Master Zuiken. According to this site, "Shido Bunan" means the ultimate path.



It is said that one should be dead to passion, but alive to divine love. Only then is death respected equally with life. This thought is only depressing when we fear death. When we accept death as a wholesome part of existence in this world, life becomes worth living. For it is worth living precisely because of Love.
