and Impure Buddhalands and#8211; This Very Place, the Lotus
Paradiseand#8221; by Taranita. He begins the talk by and#8220;Reading
the Sukhavativyuha Sutraand#8221;, a text that expounds on the
grandeur and wealth of riches available in the Pure Land. Taranita

of the flowery language of the sutra, and suggests we look at it
symbolically and mythically.
