“After the one thought-moment in which, realizing the transience
of birth-and-death in our own flesh, we once genuinely and
directly entrust ourselves through saying Namu-amida-butsu, the
self is no longer the self. Then, as our hearts are Amida Buddha’s
heart, our bodily actions Amida Buddha’s actions, and our words
Amida Buddha’s words, the life we are living is Amida Buddha’s
life.
