This is an electronic version of the book "Pure-Land Zen, Zen Pure-Land," which is a translation of chosen passages from the letters of Elder Master Yin Kuang, the Thirteenth Patriarch of Pure Land (second edition 1993). Yin Kuang Fa Shih Wen Ch'ao and Yin Kuang Ta Shih Chia-Yen Lu are the original Chinese titles. Nothing has been added or modified except for the two photographs of Master Yin Kuang. The Van Hien Study Group's notes to the letters and glossary, as well as the Appendix (The Practices and Vows of the Bodhisattva Samantabhadra), were left out, but will hopefully be included later. T.G., May 2005, * The Corporate Body of the Buddha reprinted and donated for free distribution.
