"佛說無量壽經" by Sanghavarman is a Buddhist scripture written in the early centuries of the Common Era. This text is part of the Mahayana sect of Buddhism and is often referred to as the "Amitabha Sutra." The primary topic of the scripture is the teaching of Amitabha Buddha and the concept of attaining rebirth in the Pure Land, a blissful realm where enlightenment is assured for its inhabitants. The opening of the scripture introduces a gathering of Buddha and a multitude of enlightened beings and bodhisattvas at Vulture Peak in Rajgir. The narrative unfolds with a dialogue between the Buddha and his disciple Ananda, who expresses wonder at the Buddha's radiant appearance. In response, the Buddha speaks of his immense compassion and the importance of cultivating faith and diligent practice to attain freedom from suffering. He recounts the countless past Buddhas and the aspiration of those who seek to establish a pure land, emphasizing the significance of altruism and the pursuit of enlightenment for the benefit of all sentient beings.
