laudeth

Updated: May 4, 2025

To Him do gather the myriad Bodhisattvas, unnumbered as the Sands of Ganges in worship from the Eastern world. As from the East, so gather also to the Infinite One the Bodhisattvas from the Nine Regions of the worlds. With Sacred Psalms the Gautama Buddha himself laudeth the boundless glory of the Infinite One. Seek refuge in the World-Honoured.

Shinran - Wisdom of the East : Buddhist Psalms translated from the Japanese of Shinran Shonin

Mortals surround thy production, judging, valuing, discussing it in detail; the patron laudeth the ornaments, the grandeur of the columns, the weight of the work; the distributors of favour gamble away thy honour, or creep like mice under thy plan, and nibble at it in the darkness of night. No, my friend, the life of an artist is the life of a martyr."
