Learning about ironically overlooked Asian American Buddhists is always great. Unfortunately, “American Buddhism” is always understood as “white Buddhism” when the majority of American Buddhists are Asian

Interesting: white Buddhists always bring a judeo-Christian, ego-filled background with them.

Bad point: Honen did not reject Tendai. The Japanese history of Jodo Shinshu wasn’t entirely accurate.
