Our lifestyle can be described as a life of simplicity, peace, gratitude, wisdom and compassion. However, just one day decided not to live in this special way, to the contrary, is the result of a natural process of bright faith, dedication, practice and then more practice. Well, the Buddhist master said Sangharashita “commitment is primary, lifestyle is secondary.” In other words, the effort of our practice is the only way to experience the true Buddhist way of life. With practice, the way life unfolds itself naturally. When we carry nembutsu daily practice, our lives will be transformed naturally into the substance of shinjin, the experience of awakening.

Antetodo, our way of life Shin arises when we take refuge in the Three Jewels of Buddha, Dharma and Sangha.

Taking refuge in the Buddha is to trust the source of understanding, faith and compassion, symbolized as Amida, the Buddha of Immeasurable Life and Light and its historical manifestation, Buddha Shakyamuni. One sees the historical Buddha as our great teacher and embodiment of our true human potential. In the end, the Buddha is our true nature or universal life. Therefore, when we take refuge in Buddha, I really take refuge in ourselves.

Taking refuge in the Dharma is to rely on reality as it is, which is called the ocean of shunyata, the Buddha’s teachings and the path of understanding, faith and compassion.

Taking refuge in the Sangha is to rely on the Buddhist path practitioner community that strives to manifest and incarnate the kingdom lit here on Earth.

From this point of view, the Buddhist lifestyle deepens daily practice of the Ten Commandments (they are listed below.) No one can say that is a follower of the Buddhist path without taking daily refuge in the Three Jewels and effort to practice the Five Precepts. Because we act as a refuge, naturally begin to develop our spiritual ear to pay attention better to the call of light and life (Amida) within our bodies and environment. When we hear this call Holy deeply, with all our being, we put our hearts and minds in the Primal Vow and the unconditional love of Amida, we recite it with the nembutsu shinjin-Namu-Amida-Butsu.

Each recitation of nembutsu-Namu-Amida-Butsu is considered the consolidation of the Noble Eightfold Path and the living embodiment of the Three Jewels that comes from our deepest nature. As we deepen our practice of nembutsu, little by little, our practice becomes part of us. We begin to rule our egocentismo and experience a spiritual rebirth. This religious revival then directly affects our thinking and behavior and results that we can transform our relationships and world.
