| The running order of a Jodo Shinshu Amida Buddha Service |
| Following the reciting The Threefold Refuge, the central or main part of a Buddha Service usually comes in the form of the chanting of a Sutra. The Sambutsuge, Jusiege, Junari and Shoshinge are the primary sutras in Jodo Shinshu tradition. The traditional way to conclude a Buddha Service and express ones gratitude is to chant the Eko. |
Juseige is a gatha comes from the Larger Sutra of Immeasurable Life.
In that sutra the Bodhisattva Dhamakara, who becomes Amida
Buddha,
declares to the Buddha Lokesvararaja his intentions
to become a Buddha himself.
The Three Sacred Vows, refer to Dharmakara's pledge to:
1. Establish the most incomparable Vow in the world
2. Become a great provider and save the poor and suffering
3. Attain Buddhahood and have his Name heard throughout
the ten quarters of the universe.

PURE LAND NOTES Since 2008, Chomon House has published a widely (world-widely!) distributed quarterly Shin Buddhist journal called Pure Land Notes. Due not in the least to the consistancy and continuity of its engagement in the transmition and indeed introduction of Shin Buddhism to the UK in around 1977, PLN has evolved to become a meeting place for those unable to attend our Thursday night 'core-group' gatherings at Chomon House. Those that subscribe to the journal represent the vast majority of the membership of the SBFUK. Please click/tap here >purelandnotes.com< or on the links above and below for details. |
