Let us continue with selections from “The Larger Sukhāvatīvyūha Sutra,” where we learn about Amitābha Buddha’s immeasurable Light that brings joy to many beings and illuminates countless realms.

“After this, the blessed Ânanda thus spoke to the Blessed One: ‘O Blessed One, has that Bhikshu Dharmâkara, the noble-minded Bodhisattva, after having obtained the highest perfect knowledge, passed away, having entered Nirvâna, or has he not yet been enlightened, or is he now living and enlightened, and does he dwell now, remain, support himself, and teach the [Dharma] Law?’

The Blessed One said: ‘Not indeed, O Ânanda, has that Enlightened One passed away, nor has He not yet come, but the Enlightened One, the holy, after having obtained the highest perfect knowledge, dwells now, remains, supports Himself, and teaches the [Dharma] Law, in the western quarter, in the Buddha country, distant from this world by a hundred thousand niyutas of kotîs of Buddha countries, in the world which is called Sukhâvatî, being called Amitâbha, the Buddha, holy and fully enlightened.

He is surrounded by innumerable Bodhisattvas, and worshipped by endless Srâvakas [disciples], and in possession of the endless perfection of His Buddha country.’

There is not, O Ânanda, any case of likeness, by which the extent of the Light of that Buddha Amitâbha could be understood. Hence, O Ânanda, for that reason that Buddha is called Amitâbha (possessed of infinite Light) […]’”
