Amitabha (Jp: Amida Nyorai)

The name Amida is from the Sanskrit word meaning infinite life, and because Amida's compassion is infinite and without boundaries, he is also called the Buddha of Infinite Life. He is widely known for the practice of chanting "Namu Amida Butsu," the six syllables of his sacred name, in the Pure Land tradition of Buddhism. Amida Nyorai is the main deity, and spiritual peace of mind lies in being able to attain salvation by relying on his power.
