EDITORS COMMENTS
Amida, also known as Amitabha or Amitayus, is depicted in this stunning 18th century engraving as the celestial Buddha of Immeasurable Light and Life, the principal Buddha in Mahayana Buddhism and the central figure of Pure Land Buddhism in East Asia. The image captures the serene and compassionate expression of Amida, surrounded by a halo of radiant light. Devoted followers, seen in the foreground, are shown immersing themselves in the river, drowning in honor of Amida's divine presence. This self-sacrificing act of devotion was believed to ensure salvation and rebirth in Amida's Pure Land. The engraving, dating back to circa 1780, showcases the deep reverence and devotion the Japanese people held towards Amida, their beloved deity. The intricate details of the artwork, from the flowing robes of the Buddha to the determined expressions of his followers, transport us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural and spiritual traditions of Japan.
