專家說明

The Sukhavati realm, otherwise known as the Western Pure Land, is an important aspect of Mahayana Buddhist tradition. There are countless Pure Lands, each presided over by a Buddha or bodhisattva, but Amitabha's Western Pure Land is considered the most popular. The Pure Land is visualized as a celestial realm where meritorious beings are reborn to bask in the teachings of the presiding Buddha.
