Note: Amitabha Buddha Thangka is an original painting from Enlightenment Studio located at Boudha Stupa.
In Mahayana Buddhism, Amitabha is Amitayus, the great savior Buddha, particularly in the Pure Land sects. In Tibet and Nepal, Amitabha was never as popular as a savior figure as in East Asia. Still, he is revered as one of the five "self-born" buddhas (Dhyani-buddhas) who have existed eternally. Amitabha is known as Amitayus, or "Infinite Life," because he bestows longevity. The two names are interchanged in China and Japan, but in Tibet, the two are never confounded in a specific ritual for obtaining long life. He is depicted with ornaments and a crown on his head, holding the ambrosia vase from which the eternal life jewels fall.
