## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    great perspective
  

*by R***B on Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2022*

Unno boils down enlightenment to the simplest of practices: the nembutsu of Shin Buddhism. This book helps you to see that what is standing in our way of peace and freedom is not a lack of something, but our already existing complications and passions.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    True to the heart of jodo shinshu
  

*by A***D on Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2017*

I had the opportunity of eating dinner with Dr. Unno and his wife Alice in 1999.  I was young and full of my self at the time.  I missed a great opportunity to listen.  Now as I read this book, I understand what a great teacher he was.  If you are ready to listen deaply, this book is a glimpse at the heart of Amida's gift.  I highly recommend it for anyone who has exhausted jinriki.  In gasho, a fan of this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Brief chapters, concise writing, inspiring.
  

*by W***F on Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2018*

This is the first of Mr. Unno's books I've read and I found it one of the more beautifully written books on religion I've encountered.  He is an exceptional author.  I wish I might have been one of his students in his classroom at university.  Highly recommend to those interested in Shin Buddhism for its clarity.  Brief chapters, concise writing, inspiring.
