He is shown in his paradise, Sukhavati, the Western Pure Land, enthroned beneath a flowering tree festooned with strands of jewels and auspicious symbols. To either side, the sky is filled with throngs of ecstatic demigods who bear offerings and scatter flowers. Seated below are the eight great bodhisattvas, and between them are two large, low tables covered with offerings. To either side are the vast assembled audiences who receive Amitayus’s message. At the bottom, set within a vast panoramic landscape, are courtyards, giant lotus flowers, and pools from which the purified are being reborn.

"Mantra:Namo Amituo Fo"

Amitabha Buddha has both hands and feet fooled signifying inner peace within one's self. He is depicted wearing ornaments and a crown and holding the ambrosia vase from which spill the jewels of eternal life. The green enlightenment tells the truth about life and stops being reborn because they have reached Nirvana.
