Amitayus, the Buddha of Infinite Life, represents the blessings of longevity, vitality, and spiritual abundance. His serene expression and compassionate gaze embody his infinite benevolence toward all beings. Seated in the vajra posture on a lotus base, he holds a kalasha (long-life vase) filled with the nectar of immortality, symbolizing health and eternal life. His hands rest in the dhyana mudra, a gesture of deep meditation and inner peace. His five-pointed crown represents the Five Dhyani Buddhas, who embody the five transcendent wisdoms that dispel ignorance: ultimate truth, mirror-like clarity, equanimity, discriminating awareness, and flawless action. His ushnisha atop his head symbolizes his awakened wisdom and spiritual mastery. As one of the Three Long Life Deities, alongside White Tara and Ushnishavijaya, Amitayus plays a pivotal role in rituals focused on healing, renewal of life force, and enhancing longevity.
