Jingtu

Jingtu, also known as Pure Land Buddhism, is a tradition within Mahayana Buddhism that emphasizes devotion to Amitabha Buddha. Followers believe that by sincerely reciting his name and cultivating faith, they can be reborn into a blissful, pure land where enlightenment is easier to attain. This practice offers a hopeful path for those who find conventional meditation and discipline challenging, focusing on reliance on Amitabha's vow to rescue beings. Jingtu combines faith, recitation, and ethical conduct, aiming for spiritual liberation through divine grace and the promise of rebirth in a spiritually ideal realm.
