Western Pure Land Buddhism (WPLB) is the name I have given to one
of the latest teachings of the Mahayana Pure Land tradition. It
shares with all other Buddhist groups the ideal of attaining
Nirvana, not just for oneself, but also for all beings. Thus the
goal of one's life is to realize Buddhahood in order to help others
see this world of birth-and-death (samsara) as Nirvana. Where WPLB
differs from most other Buddhists is in teaching that Buddhahood is
a gift to us from Amida, the Buddha of Infinite Light and Life, and
that we acknowledge that gift by the saying of Nembutsu (Namah
Amida Buddha). The life of Nembutsu consists of chanting the
Nembutsu and teaching others the way. It is to live a life without
fear. And to join with others to better achieve these goals.
