Amida Buddhism

Amida Buddhism, also known as Pure Land Buddhism, is a branch of Mahayana Buddhism focused on the belief in Amida Buddha, who vowed to help all beings achieve enlightenment and rebirth in his paradise, the Pure Land. Practitioners often recite the nembutsu, a phrase expressing devotion to Amida, seeking his grace for a better rebirth. This tradition emphasizes faith and compassion, providing a path for those who may find traditional meditation practices challenging. It appeals to many for its accessible approach to spirituality and the promise of salvation through faith in Amida.
