Amitabha Buddha embodies compassion, wisdom, and the transformative power of light. His most distinctive gesture is the meditation mudra (Dhyana Mudra), with both hands resting in his lap, palms upward, and thumbs touching to form a triangle. In this gesture, he holds a begging bowl or vase, symbolizing the nectar of immortality or spiritual nourishment. Amitabha is typically depicted seated in the full lotus posture (vajra posture) on a lotus throne, signifying purity and spiritual awakening. His 48 vows form the foundation of his promise to guide all beings to rebirth in his Pure Land, where they can attain enlightenment. Through his embodiment of compassion, wisdom, and the transformative light he offers, Amitabha helps dispel ignorance and leads practitioners on the path to spiritual awakening.
