Amida is Foolish Too

"[...]But when I reflect it seems to me that Amida is foolish because Amida is never apart from us, who are foolish, and all the world, which is foolish too. Amida participates in our foolishness in order to relieve it. Amida doesn't cast out sinners in anger. Those who are hardest to reach are given the lion's share of Amida's compassionate attention."

- Jeff Wilson, Buddhism of the Heart
