Amitabha, also known as Amida, is a celestial Buddha revered in Mahayana Buddhism, particularly in Pure Land Buddhism. He is known as the Buddha of Infinite Light and Infinite Life. Amitabha resides in the Western Pure Land of Sukhavati, a realm of bliss and enlightenment. He is known for his vow to save all beings who call upon his name with sincere faith, promising them rebirth in his Pure Land, where they can easily attain enlightenment. In practice, this involves chanting his name, a central practice in Pure Land Buddhism.

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.
