Pure Land Buddhism

Devotional Buddhist path emphasizing faith in Amitabha Buddha's vows to save all beings through rebirth in the Pure Land paradise. This tradition offers hope for ordinary people who feel unable to achieve enlightenment through self-power alone, emphasizing instead reliance on Amitabha's compassionate power activated through sincere faith and nembutsu (calling Buddha's name). Pure Land practice combines devotional recitation with ethical living and community support, creating accessible path to liberation through trust rather than rigorous meditation alone.
