【Product details】
This plaque of Amitabha Buddha is crafted from hammered copper. The Amitabha Buddha, known as "Amitābha" (Infinite Light) or "Amitāyus" (Infinite Life) in Sanskrit, represents boundless light and life. This deity is one of the most widely venerated figures in Mahayana Buddhism. Among all Buddhas, Amitabha is known for his radiant light and unconditional ability to save sentient beings, even those burdened with heavy sins. He is revered as the principal deity of the Western Pure Land, or Sukhāvatī.
Due to his infinite compassion and power to save, Amitabha Buddha is widely adored and occupies a central position in Japanese Buddhism, serving as a focal point of devotion for many. This plaque can be a beautiful addition to a space meant for reflection and tranquility.
There are scratches, stains, and patina due to age. Please check the photos for the condition.
