Abstract |
The authors describe various undertakings, such as the construction of the massive Buddha Memorial Center (completed in 2011) and the transportation of the Buddha's tooth relic into Taiwan in 1998. All designed to convince devotees that the Pure Land is already here, constantly evoked in art, music, rituals, and the never-failing benignity of the Master. |
