“ In entering Buddha Dharma,

there are generally three approaches:

teaching, interpretation and practice.

Teachings are shallow,

interpretation is profound,

but practice is supreme.

(Elder Master Ching-yin Hui-yuan, 6th c.)

According to Buddhist Teaching,

all people possess an inherently

enlightened True Nature

that is their real identity.

By becoming mindful of Buddha

[through reciting the Buddha’s name],

therefore, people are just regaining

their own real identity.

They are remembering

their own Buddha-nature. ”

Pure Land, Pure Mind

Introduction by Dr. J. C. Cleary

N   S E

This is a revised and expanded edition of The Seeker’s Glossary of

Buddhism, which first appeared a year ago. The text is a compen-

dium of excerpts and quotations from some 350 works by monks,

nuns, professors, scholars and other laypersons from nine different

countries, in their own words or in translation. The editors have

merely organized the material, adding a few connecting thoughts

of their own for ease in reading.

How to use the Glossary: This book can be used in three

ways: to find the definition of unfamiliar terms; to gain a broader

understanding of specific Buddhist concepts; and also as an intro-

duction to Buddhism. In the last instance, we suggest that read-

ers begin with the entry on Parables, then move on to Practice,

Obstacles to Cultivation and Ten Non-Seeking Practices. Other

entries of a more contemporary interest can be read with benefit

by all. These include: Birth Control, Organ Transplants, Vegetarian-

ism, Universe, Immortality.

Realms of worlds in empty space might reach an end,

And living beings, karma and afflictions be extinguished;

But they will never be exhausted, and neither will my vows.

(Vows of Bodhisattva Samantabhadra: Avatamsaka Sutra)

With bad advisors forever left behind,

From paths of evil he departs for eternity,

Soon to see the Buddha of Limitless Light

And perfect Samantabhadra’s Supreme Vows.

The Vows of Samantabhadra
