Amitabha Buddha embodies compassion, wisdom, and the transformative power of light. His most distinctive gesture is the meditation mudra (Dhyana Mudra), in which both hands rest in his lap, palms upward, and the thumbs touch to form a triangle. In this gesture, he holds a begging bowl or vase, symbolizing the nectar of immortality or spiritual nourishment. Amitabha is typically depicted seated in the whole lotus posture (vajra posture) on a lotus throne, signifying purity and spiritual awakening. His 48 vows form the foundation of his promise to guide all beings to rebirth in his Pure Land, where they can attain enlightenment. Through his embodiment of compassion, wisdom, and the transformative light he offers, Amitabha helps dispel ignorance and leads practitioners on the path to spiritual awakening.

Introduction To Amitabha Buddha :

In the Pure Land sects of Mahayana Buddhism, Amitabha is sometimes referred to as Amitayus, the great savior Buddha. Amitabha is worshipped as one of the five "self-born" Buddhas (Dhyani Buddhas) who have been forever; however, he was never as well-known as a savior figure in Tibet and Nepal as he was in East Asia. Amitabha bestows longevity, earning him the name Amitayus, or "Infinite Life." In China and Japan, the two names are frequently used interchangeably; however, in Tibet, the two are never confused, and Amitayus is worshipped in a specific rite to achieve long life.

How do you take care of your statues?

• Place them at room temperature, avoiding direct sunlight.
• Make sure that the area where your statue is placed is entirely free of moisture and dust.
• Place it at the highest place on your altar after being consecrated by a Lama/monks. The best practice is to keep them covered inside a glass cabinet.
• Do not use your bare hands or any objects with a rough surface to wipe the face.
• Directly touching objects with the bare hand can smudge the face, leaving scratches.
