BUDDHA AMITABHA

Amitābha, Amitāyus or Amida, in Japanese 阿弥陀, is a Buddha of Mahayana and Vajrayana Buddhism. He reigns over the “Western Pure Land of Bliss” (Sanskrit: Sukhāvatī, Chinese: Xīfāng jílè shìjiè, ja.: saihō goraku sekai 西方極樂世界), a wonderful, pure, perfect world, free from evil and suffering. This pure land, a place of refuge outside the cycle of transmigrations — equivalent to nirvāņa according to certain conceptions — is at the center of the beliefs and practices of the schools of the Pure Land. This Buddha, which is also called the Buddha of Buddhas, is very popular among Mahāyānists, particularly in the Chinese world, Korea, Japan, Tibet, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam.
