Pure Land and Dharma Books
If you would like to support the authors, please consider picking up a copy from Amazon.
This is a collection of helpful books in English that we found on the Pure Land Dharma. You can also find them on Amazon for electronic versions and support the authors. Some books may have mistakes, for instance, Mind Seal of the Buddha (Patriarch Ou-i's Commentary on the Amitabha Sutra), when it explains single-mindedness, it doesn't mean that one cannot have any thoughts when Nianfo, rather one can have thoughts but not be distracted by it. Jiawen also talked about this in her video here.
