As 2022 comes to an end, The Godfathers Of Podcasting spent an hour reflecting on the year that was – and dealing with ridiculously stupid tech issues all night long.That includes our interview with our pal – Canadian Broadcasting icon Master T! Now, normally if we have any tech issues, we spend hours editing to remove them all, but these were just too funny – we had to leave them in as is. Master T was hit hard by audio and tech issues and we battled through them.None the less, we had a lot of fun and it was a super memorable episode. Check it out!

“Mindfulness of breathing is the great vehicle used by buddhas to save beings who are drifting.” – Master Khương Tăng Hội Meditation Master Khương Tăng Hội, the first patriarch of Zen in Vietnam, was a great source of inspiration for our teacher Thầy to practice and develop Engaged Buddhism. In this talk by Sr. Hội Nghiêm (English translation by Sr. Lăng Nghiêm) on the master's Memorial Day, we learn how mindful breathing helps us to take care of our body and mind, to gradually let go of all afflictions and views that bind us. Practicing mindfulness in our daily life enables us to keep balance on our path of service. As our hearts become more free, our activism also gains a new, deeper dimension.

Hi Dharma-friends! With this episode, we conclude our traversal of Shinran's 34 Wasan verses on Master T'an-luan, who lived in China 476-562 CE. Master T'an-luan is the great teacher of Other Power or Power Beyond Self, which is a core feature of Shinran's understanding of Buddhism. In today's verses, T'an-luan explains that whether one's practice is fully in accord with reality is determined by Shinjin (entrusting or awakening). The shinjin of Self-Power is shown to be lacking, while the shinjin of Other-Power is in accordance with ultimate reality. Other-Power or Power Beyond Self quickly leads to the enlightenment of Nirvana, according to Master T'an-luan. Other-Power is the power of Amida Buddha, the Primal Vow, encapsulated in the Name-of-the-Buddha, NAMO-AMIDA-BUTSU. In the next episode, we will cover the Wasan verses on the fourth great master of the Jōdo Shinshū lineage, Master Tao-ch'o, who lived in China 562-645 CE. Hope you are enjoying this series! Check out the website of the American Buddhist Study Center ambuddhist.org for more interesting Dharma content. Please be well, always saying the Buddha's most honored Name, NAMO-AMIDA-BUTSU. With palms together, Gary
Hi Dharma friends! Today's episode covers 5 more verses written by Shinran Shonin based on the writings of Master T'an-luan, who lived in China (476-542 CE). As you know already, Shinran relies on Master T'an-luan for the teachings on Other Power. In today's Wasan verses, we learn that only the Shinjin of Other Power is sufficient for birth in the Pure Land. Shinjin is often understood as "true entrusting" or "awakening." T'an-luan explains why Shinjin based on Self Power is not adequate for birth in the Buddha-land of happiness -- thereby implying which qualities the Shinjin of Other Power supplies. Hope you are enjoying the Weekly Wasan Podcast. Check our home page of the American Buddhist Study Center for other cool content at www.ambuddhist.org Palms together, Gary

Hi Dharma friends, We're continuing with Shinran Shonin's verses on Master T'an-luan of China (476-542 CE). Today we encounter the marvelous image of ice and water - how the ice of our blind passions melts into the water of virtues through the power of Amida's Vow and ultimately flows into the great ocean of Enlightenment. This analogy was beloved by Shinran and subsequent Shin Buddhist masters and teachers ever since. Enjoy these Wasan verses, and please tell your friends about the podcast. Palms together, Gary

Hi Dharma friends! In this episode, Shinran delves into the nitty-gritty of Master T'an-luan's teaching. We hear about the important concept of Amida's "directing of virtue," which we are told has two aspects: that of going forth and that of return. T'an-luan is the master upon whom Shinran relies for his understanding of Other Power or Power Beyond Self, a key part of his understanding of Buddhism. Next time we'll continue with six more verses in this collection. If you are enjoying the podcast and the Wasan readings, please tell your friends to check it out as well.

Hi Dharma friends, Welcome back to our reading of Shinran Shonin's verses on Master T'an-luan, the third master in the Jōdo Shinshū lineage. T'an-luan, who lived 476-542 CE in China, is the one who best explained the teaching of Other Power, a key concept in Shinran's understanding of Buddhism. While today's verses lean more toward the biographical end of the spectrum in this collection, there are tantalizing intimations of the powerful teachings that follow. Please enjoy them! If you like hearing the regular Wasan verses, please encourage your friends to listen also. Check out the home page of the American Buddhist Study Center ambuddhist.org for more great Dharma content.
Hi Dharma friends! Today we begin the series of Wasan verses written by Shinran Shonin on Master T'an-luan, who lived in China 476-542 CE. Shinran wrote 34 verses based on T'an-luan's writings, regarding him as the clarifier and teacher of Other Power, a very important part of the Jōdo Shinshū understanding of Buddhism. Other Power has been sometimes misunderstood or criticized by those unfamiliar with it as being "non-dualistic." However, for Shinran, that was not the case at all. T'an-luan is the Master who takes the lid off the box of Other Power, as it were, and shows us what it really is, why it is essential for us, and how it works. Cool stuff! This episode covers the first six of Shinran's verses about T'an-luan and Other Power. The next few episodes will continue with this collection six verses at a time. If you're enjoying the podcast, tell your friends to listen also. Check out the American Buddhist Study Center home page - ambuddhist.org - for more good content on Shin Buddhism. Palms together, Gary
Hi Dharma Friends, This week we cover the five remaining Wasan verses by Shinran on Bodhisattva Vasubandhu. The teachings of Bodhisattva Vasubandhu on "the mind that is single" is central to Shinran's understanding of Buddhism. That is why Shinran regarded Vasubandhu as the second of the seven masters in the Jōdo Shinshū lineage. The Wasans in this episode are among my personal favorites. See what you think! Next time we will start the next section, which is on Master T'an-luan, 34 gathas or hymns based on his writings. If you "follow" or "subscribe" to this podcast on your provider's platform, each episode will be delivered to your device as soon as it is published and you can listen at your convenience.

Stuart Alve Olson found an interest in Chinese philosophy as a teenager. In his late 20s, he began his formal training in ancient Eastern practices that continues today, more than 40 years later. His deep education in Taoism and Buddhism have helped give him fodder to author nearly 40 books and to teach students around the world. As you will soon hear, Stuart is a gifted storyteller, and this episode is full of ancient parables, teachings from his mentor, lessons from people he has encountered, and humorous anecdotes. We begin with an account of his multi-year bowing pilgrimage that crossed many US states, was replete with personal insights, and provided sagely advice from the most unexpected people and places. We explore the concept of inner alchemy through the lens of Taoist and Buddhist parables, discuss Stuart's books, and delve into his lessons from life. We also chat about his relationship and mentorship with Master T.T. Liang, with whom he studied with for much of his adult life until his master's death. This discussion includes a look at the concepts of longevity and immortality from an ancient Chinese lens. Stuart is the founder and director of the Sanctuary of Tao, where he offers his virtual mentor program on inner alchemy. He is also co-founder of Valley Spirit Arts, a publishing company where you can find Stuart's books, including the gem Actions and Retributions. To me Stuart brings to mind an image of a happy sage or monk. His sense of humour, candor, and wisdom all helped to make a very enjoyable and special conversation from which I hope you benefit as much as I have. Humbleness is something he experienced on his bowing pilgrimage, and all these years later, he continues to exhibit it in his actions and way of being.

Pia anafahamkika kama Master T, mwenye sauti yake tamu ya kumfanya mtu abadilishe mawazo na kufanya anachosema yeye, lafdhi nzuri ya maneno ya Kiswahili na Kiingereza na tabasamu zuri kabisa lililokaa mahala pake na hiyo ndo tofauti ya Taji Liundi na watangazaji pamoja na hata viongozi wa department mbali mbali kwenye vyombo vyetu vya habari vya ‘siku hizi'. Taji alibahatika kuzaliwa kwenye familia yenye uwezo kwa kiasi chake na malezi bora aliyapata kwa Baba yake ambaye muda mwingi alikua akisafiri nchi mbalimbali kutokana na kazi yake na hii pia ilimfanya ajengeke kwa kiasi flani, kuweza kujiamini, kuongea lunga zaidi ya moja na mapenzi yake na muziki pia yalianzia hapo. Aliniambia katika maongezi yetu haya kwamba kukaa na Marehemu Mzee wake ambaye alikua busy wakati mwingi ndo ulimpa mwanya wa yeye kujifunza mambo mengi ya nje ikiwa ni pamoja na muziki na michezo kama football na basketball. Pia aliniambia alikua mpigaji simu kwenye radio mzuri sana tu, na kwa kiasi flani hiyo ilifanya mapenzi yake na radio yaanzie na aliporudi nyumbani na familia yake alipata msukumo wa kwenda kutafuta kazi kwenye radio. Kuna tukio pia lilitokea vacati akiwa na umri kama miaka saba au nane ivi, ambalo lilikua linahusiana na wivu wa mapenzi ambao Mama yake alikua nao kwa marehemu Mzee wake na ndo ambalo lilifanya maisha ya Taji yabadilike sana sana. Na hihi simulizi alitupa kwenye kipindi chetu hiki, hii ni tettes ambayo niliiskia mara nyingi tu wakati nakua na kistaarabu kabisa ilibidi nimuulize Kaka yangu kama atakua huru tuizungumzie hapa, na hakua na hiyana kabisa. Tuliongelea jinsi ambavyo Mama yake aliwauwa ndugu zake na jinsi ambavyo yeye aliponea chupuchupum anatuelezea vizuri sana kwenye maogezi yetu haya. Taji pia alikua boss vanga wa kwanza mimi kama Salama, kazi yangu ya kwanza yeye ndo alinipatia nafasi kwa moyo mmoja kabisa, aliniambia nifanye majaribio ya sauti na kusoma habari flani ya Tennis na mengine baada ya hapo ni history kama wazungu wanavyosema. Kwahiyo pia nilimuuliza kiaina ni nini hasa aliona ndani yangu na kama anaikumbuka hiyo siku, maana binafsi nakumbuka mpaka nilichokua nimekivaa Salama mimi. Maneno pekoe hayawezi kusimulia jinsi ninavyo mshukuru kwa kuniamini na nafasi, Mwenyezi Mungu aendelee kumlinda, kumpa afya njema na kumtimizia kila takwa la moyo wake In Shaa Alla. Kwa kumalizia pia mi Kaka yangu tulizungumzia mustakabali wa muziki wetu na wanamuziki wetu, radio na watangazaji wa kisasa na pia muongozo kwenye masuala ya kazi, Taji pia aliniambia naye ameanza kutimiza ndoto zake kidogo kidogo kwa kutoa single yake ambayo hata mimi nilishtuka kidogo kwa furaha baada ya kuona yuko serious, na sio wimbo tu, ni wimbo MZURI. Nilienjoy sana kuongea na Taji kwenye kipindi hiki na zaidi nilifurahi kwasababu anakua anapatikana pale unapomhitaj, hii inakuja hata kwako wewe, kama utakua unahitaji ushauri wa masuala ya kazi na hata maisha, Taji hatokosa la kukuambia ambalo litakufanya ujiskie vizuri, na kuzogeza mambo, hilo nakuahidi. Hii nimeifanya kwaajili yangu na yako na yangu matumaini itakufunza jambo na kukufanya utabasamu. Love, Salama. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/yahstonetown/support

Shoshinge "The Hymn of True Faith" A crucial component of the Buddhist faith is chanting. The practice of chanting is much akin to the Christian hymns. Much like the past practice of the Catholic churches tradition of chanting in Latin, one does not need to know Japanese in order to be absorbed by the melodic rhythm of foreign sounds. This podcast is a recording of Shoshinge, one of the many Jodo Shinshu chants. Here's some background on this important chant. About Shoshige The following introduction is from Shinshū Seiten, Jōdo Shin Buddhist Teaching, published by the Buddhist Churches of America. The English translation of the gāthā is from The True Teaching, Practice and Realization of the Pure Land Way, Vol. I., Shin Buddhist Translation Series, Hongwanji International Center, Kyoto, Japan. The full title of this gāthā, Shoshin Nembutsu Ge, means ‘Gāthā on the Right (or True) Faith in the Nembutsu.’ The title consists of three terms: Shōshin, lit. ‘Right Faith’ refers to Shinjin, or Faith. Nembutsu, lit. ‘thinking of the Buddha,’ refers to the practice of uttering Amida’s Name. Ge, or ‘gāthā’ in Skt. Means ‘verse,’ or ‘hymn.’ Faith and Nembutsu are very important ideas constituting the central concepts of Shin Buddhism. In the passage which introduces the Shoshin Ge, Shinran notes; Relying upon the true words of the Great Sage and reading the commentaries of the great masters, I have realized the profound grace of the Buddha. Hence I here compose the Gāthā of True Faith in the Nembutsu. This shows that he composed this gatha out of his gratitude to Amida Buddha on the basis of the Teachings of Śākyamuni and the commentaries of the Seven Patriarchs. ‘The words of the Great Sage’ directly refers to the Dai Muryōju Kyō (The Larger Sutra), in which Shinran Shonin found the true religion by which a sinful and helpless man can be saved. He trusted in the Teachings of this Sutra singleheartedly, and conceived of all the other Teachings of the Buddha as being expedients to Pure Land Buddhism. It is also important to note that Shinran approached the Teachings of Amida’s Salvation through seven predecessors, namely, Nāgārjuna and Vasubandhu from India; Doran, Dōshaku and Zendō in China; Genshin and Genkū in Japan. In the Kyō Gyō Shin Shō he abundantly quotes from their discourse, and in the Shōshin Ge he gives their essentials. The whole gāthā is an exposition of the Pure Land Teaching which may be divided into two parts: 1) based on the Sutra and 2) based on the commentaries. The contents of the gāthā with minor divisions are as follows: I. Exposition based on the Sutra 1. Homage to Amida 2. Adoration, in particular, to a. Amida Buddha b. Śākyamuni Buddha 3. Exhortation II. Exposition based on the commentaries 1. General statement 2. Exposition, in particular, to a. Nāgārjuna [2nd or 3rd cen. A.D.] b. Vasubandhu [4th cen. A.D.] c. Donran [T’an Luan, 476-542 A.D.] d. Dōshaku [Tao-ch’o, 562-645 A.D.] e. Zendō [Shan Tao, 613-681 A.D.] f. Genshin [942-1017 A.D.] g. Genkū [Honen, 1133-1212 A.D.] 3.

I entrust myself to the Buddha of Inconceivable Light! Bodhisattva Dharmākara, in his causal stage, Under the guidance of Lokeśvararāja Buddha. Searched into the origins of the Buddhas’ pure land, And the qualities of those lands and their men and devas; He then established the supreme, incomparable Vow; He made the great Vow rare and all-encompassing. In five kalpas of profound thought, he embraced this Vow, Then resolved again that his Name be heard throughout the ten quarters. Everywhere he casts light immeasurable, boundless, Unhindered, unequaled, light-lord of all brilliance, Pure light, joyful light, the light of wisdom, Light constant, inconceivable, light beyond speaking, Light excelling sun and moon he sends forth, illumining countless worlds; The multitudes of beings all receive the radiance. The Name embodying the Primal Vow is the act of true settlement, The Vow of entrusting with sincere mind is the cause of birth; We realize the equal of enlightenment and supreme nirvāņa Through the fulfillment of the Vow of attaining nirvāņa without fail. Śākyamuni Tathāgata appeared in this world Solely to teach the ocean-like Primal Vow of Amida; We, an ocean of beings in an evil age of five defilements, Should entrust ourselves to the Tathagata’s words of truth. When the one thought-moment of joy arises, Nirvāņa is attained without severing blind passions; When ignorant and wise, even grave offenders and slanders of the dharma, all alike turn and enter shinjin, They are like waters that, on entering the ocean, become one in taste with it. The light of compassion that grasps us illumines and protects us always; The darkness of our ignorance is already broken through; Still the clouds and mists of greed and desire, anger and hatred, Cover as always the sky of true and real shinjin. But though light of the sun is veiled by clouds and mists, Beneath the clouds and mists there is brightness, not dark. When one realizes shinjin, seeing and revering and attaining great joy, One immediately leaps crosswise, closing off the five evil courses. All foolish beings, whether good or evil, When they hear and entrust to Amida’s universal Vow, Are praised by the Buddha as people of vast and excellent understanding; Such a person is called a pure white lotus. For evil sentient beings of wrong views and arrogance, The nembutsu that embodies Amida’s Primal Vow Is hard to accept in shinjin; This most difficult of difficulties, nothing surpasses. The masters of India in the west, who explained the teachings in treaties, And the eminent monks of China and Japan, Clarified the Great Sage’s true intent in appearing in the world, And revealed that Amida’s Primal Vow accords with the nature of beings. Śākyamuni Tathāgata, on Mount Lankā, Prophesied to the multitudes that in south India The mahasattva Nāgārjuna would appear in this world To crush the views of being and non-being; Proclaiming the unexcelled Mahāyāna teaching, He would attain the stage of joy and be born in the land of happiness. Nāgārjuna clarifies the hardship on the overland path of difficult practice, And leads us to entrust to the pleasure on the waterway of easy practice. He teaches that the moment one thinks on Amida’s Primal Vow, One is naturally brought to enter the sage of the definitely settled; Solely saying the Tathāgata’s Name constantly, One should respond with gratitude to the universal Vow of great compassion. Bodhisattva Vasubandhu, composing a treatise, declares That he takes refuge in the Tathagata of unhindered light, And that relying on the sutras, he will reveal the true and real virtues, And make widely known the great Vow by which we leap crosswise beyond birth-and-death. He discloses the mind that is single so that all beings be saved By Amida’s directing of virtue through the power of the Primal Vow. When a person turns and enters the great treasure-ocean of virtue, Necessarily he joins Amida’s assembly; And when he reaches hat lotus-held world, He immediately realizes the body of suchness or dharma-nature. Then sporting in the forests of blind passions, he manifests transcendent powers; Entering the garden of birth-and-death, he assumes various forms to guide others. Turning toward the dwelling of Master T’an-laun, the Emperor of Liang Always paid homage to him as a bodhisattva. Bodhiruci, master of the Tripitaka, gave T’an-laun the Pure Land teachings, And T’an-laun, burning his Taoist scriptures, took refuge in the land of bliss. In his commentary on the treatise of Bodhisattva Vasubandhu, He shows that the cause and attainment of birth in the fulfilled land lie in the Vow. Our going and returning, directed to us by Amida, come about through Other Power; The truly decisive cause is shinjin. When a foolish being of delusion and defilement awakens to shinjin, He realizes that birth-and-death is itself nirvāna; Without fail he reaches the land of immeasurable light And universally guides sentient beings to enlightenment. Tao-ch’o determined how difficult it is to fulfill the Path of Sages, And reveals that only passage through the Pure Land gate is possible for us. He criticizes self-power endeavor in the myriad good practices, And encourages us solely to say the fulfilled Name embodying true virtue. With kind concern he teaches the three characteristics of entrusting and non entrusting, Compassionately guiding all identically, whether they live when the dharma survives as but form, when in its last stage, or when it has become extinct. Though a person has committed evil all his life, when he encounters the Primal Vow, He will reach the world of peace and realize the perfect fruit of enlightenment. Shan-tao alone in his time clarified the Buddha’s true intent; Sorrowing at the plight of meditative and non-meditative practicers and people of grave evil, He reveals that Amida’s Light and Name are the causes of birth. When the practicer enters the great ocean of wisdom, the Primal Vow, He receives the diamond-like mind And accords with the one thought-moment of joy; whereupon, Equally with Vaidehī, he acquires the threefold wisdom And is immediately brought to attain the eternal bliss of dharma-nature. Genshin, having broadly elucidated the teaching of Śākyamuni’s lifetime, Wholeheartedly took refuge in the land of peace and urges all to do so; Ascertaining that minds devoted to single practice are profound, to sundry practice, shallow, He sets forth truly the difference between the fulfilled land and the transformed land. The person burdened with extreme evil should simply say the Name: Although I too am within Amida’s grasp, Passions obstruct my eyes and I cannot see him; Nevertheless, great compassion is untiring and illumines me always. Master Genkū, well-versed in the Buddha’s teaching, Turned compassionately to foolish people, both good and evil; Establishing in this remote land the teaching and realization that are the true essence of the Pure Land way, He transmits the selected Primal Vow to us of the defiled world: Return to this house of transmigration, of birth-and-death, Is decidedly caused by doubt. Swift entrance into the city of tranquility, the uncreated, Is necessarily brought about by shinjin. The mahasattvas and masters who spread the sutras Save the countless beings of utter defilement and evil. With the same mind, all people of the present, whether monk or lay, Should rely wholly on the teachings of these venerable masters.
