[Spider63]

"Early Buddhist writings contain blood-chilling descriptions of the many cruel torments awaiting the wicked after death--but the Japanese,in the innocent and optimistic manner so charateristic of them, soon found the means of salvation: it would be sufficient to call Buddha's name before dying in order to be saved from Hell."   from Japanese Death Poems, edited by Yoel Hoffman, 1986 Tuttle & Co.
