Description
Amitābha (Sanskrit: अमिताभ, IPA: [ɐmɪˈtaːbʱɐ]) is the principal Buddha of Pure Land Buddhism. In Vajrayana Buddhism, Amitābha is known for his longevity, discernment, pure perception, and the purification of aggregates with deep awareness of the emptiness of all phenomena. According to these sutras, Amitābha possesses infinite merit resulting from great deeds cultivated across his countless past lives as Dharmākara Bodhisattva. The name Amitābha translates to "infinite light."
He is also known as Amitāyus , which is understood to be the name of his Saṃbhogakāya. In the Mandala of the Two Realms, Amitābha is associated with the Diamond Realm, while Amitāyus appears in the Womb Realm.
