I do not know how heaven is explained
by Christianity. Buddhism explains heaven to be the “Land
of Tranquil Light” or as the “Pure Buddha Land”,
but there are some differences among other sects. The “Land
of Tranquil Light” or the “Pure Buddha Land”
are referred as the spiritually best world for the souls of
people who had attained enlightenment of Buddhahood. The “Land
of Tranquil Light” is not only the world where one proceeds
to after death but also HBS looks upon it as a land we visit
during the chanting of the Odaimoku in front of the Scripture
(Gohonzon) whether it be at home or at the temple. |
