Chin/ O-Mi-T'o-Fo; Jpn/ Amida; Vn/ A-Di-Da. The word Amitabha is used in English to represent two Sanskrit terms,
"Amitabha" ("Infinite Light") and "Amitayus" ("Infinite Life"). Amitabha is the most commonly used name for the Buddha of Infinite Light and Infinite Life, "the archetype of cosmic compassion" (T. Cleary). A transhistorical Buddha venerated by all Mahayana schools (T'ien-T'ai, Esoteric, Zen ...) and, particularly, Pure Land. Presides over the Western Pure Land (Land of Ultimate Bliss) or Sukhavati, where anyone can be reborn through utterly sincere (i.e., singleminded) recitation of his name, particularly at the time of death.
