The Pure Land School is a branch of Mahayana Buddhism that emphasizes devotion to Amitabha Buddha, who is believed to offer salvation to all beings. Practitioners focus on chanting the name of Amitabha, known as the Nembutsu, to attain rebirth in the Pure Land, a realm free from suffering and conducive to enlightenment. This school originated in China and later spread to Japan, where it became one of the most popular forms of Buddhism. The teachings stress faith and reliance on Amitabha's compassion, making it accessible to people regardless of their spiritual abilities or knowledge.
