Maitrisiddhi introduces us to Shinran, the Japanese teacher on the refuge tree of the Triratna Buddhist Community. She explores what Shinran has to tell us about faith and ordinariness, both of them encourage us to rest in Metta towards our unenlightened mind. Excerpted from the talk entitled: An Introduction to Shinran and the Pure Land at Glasgow Buddhist Centre, 2021. *** Subscribe to our Dharmabytes podcast:  On Apple Podcasts | On Spotify | On Google Podcasts Bite-sized inspiration three times every week.
