Mr Khanguyen, You are a person with compassion for human beings. I understand what you are trying to do but the goal you are trying to accomplish is only one of 5 gioi' Buddha taught us. The ultimate goal of study buddhism is to completely get out of wheel of life that is to liberate all human being from being borned and died which we have been doing for eons and eons. I read your message and It seems that you have a vague understanding of buddhism due to your statement "down-to-earth Buddhism, deprived of all superstitions, myths and less emphasis on rituals. It is a rational and compassionate Buddhism based on the practice of the Six Paramitas with no ambition to liberate oneself from the cycle of birth and death let alone to become a Buddha. " If you called "liberate yourself for life cycle and born in pure land" is superstion then I suggest you should do more research or search for wisdom master to thoroughly study buddism. may your journey fill with wisdom.
