Summary "安樂集" by Daochuo is a religious text written in the late medieval period. The work focuses primarily on the teachings of Pure Land Buddhism, emphasizing the importance of devotion to Amitābha Buddha and the path to rebirth in the Pure Land. It presents a structured approach to understanding this spiritual journey through various doctrines and illustrations aimed at guiding practitioners. The opening of the text introduces the context of its teachings, explaining the significance of Pure Land practices within Buddhism. Daochuo outlines essential components of Buddhist ideology, discussing how beings can attain enlightenment and purification through sincere devotion and recitation of Buddha’s name. The narrative begins with a discussion among notable officials in the Hunan region, which may serve to establish the socio-religious backdrop and the relevance of the teachings for their context. Subsequent elaborations point toward the significance of recognizing the transformative power of faith, suggesting that even those with a history of wrongdoing can find redemption through earnest practice and remembrance of the Buddha.
