The Promise of a Sacred World

Nagapriya launches his book, The Promise of a Sacred World: Shinran’s Teaching of Other Power, in conversation with Ratnaguna and Priyavadita at Manchester Buddhist Centre..

The book is an accessible guide to the core teaching of Japanese Buddhist master, Shinran. Nagapriya brings alive for a contemporary audience the Other Power teaching of Shinran, thirteenth-century founder of Jōdo Shinshū, the most widely practised branch of Buddhism in Japan.

Nagapriya, Ratnaguna and Priyavadita are old friends who speak very personally here, drawing on their many years of practice and study.

This video appears on the Triratna Buddhist Community’s YouTube channel.
