| Abstract | This new and definitive translation of the Amitabha Sutra unlocks one of the deepest concepts of Buddhism：Happiness cannot exist without suffering. The book is an examination of the Amitabha Sutra, a central sutra of the Pure Land School of Buddhism. Nhat Hanh melds mindfulness practice and Pure Land Buddhism in his commentary and shows the relevance of the practice for people of all faiths.
Everyone has the desire to create and live in an environment that is a "Pure Land"--a place of peace and harmony. He reveals how students of meditation can use Pure Land practice as one of many Dharma doors that can bring happiness and transform suffering. A practice since the time of the Buddha, Pure Land practice puts us in touch with the beauty in our own world and brings us security，solidity and freedom.
As human beings our deepest desire is to find an environment which is secure and where there is love and understanding. All of us want to live in such an environment. If you live in surroundings where you feel there is security，understanding and love and where people have the capacity to transform their suffering，fear and attachment，then you live in the Pure Land. |
