Kenryo Kanamatsu
With thanks to World Wisdom Books, we have here direct links to two chapters of K. Kanamatsu’s classic work on Shin Buddhism.
…shut up within the narrow walls of our limited self, we lose our simplicity and turn a deaf ear to the call welling up from the inmost depths of our heart. We are not quite conscious of our inherent longing, for it is hidden under so many layers of pride and self-deception. Just as we are not ordinarily conscious of the air, so we are apt to overlook the claims of the heart demanding our foremost attention.
