Buddhaksetra, the transliteration of Buddha Gecharoro, is the world in which Mahayana Buddhism tells that the Buddha lives, which is also called "clean temple", "clean world", "clean country" and "Buddha country", which is called "dirty soil" and "dirty country" compared with all secular beings. The pure land thought of Buddhism was first introduced to China in the Han and Wei Dynasties. According to Buddhist scriptures, there are countless Buddhas, so there are countless pure lands; Different schools offer different classics, so the pursuit of pure land is different. Hokke Kyo (Saddharma-Pundar: Ka-s ū tra) talks about the pure land of Lingshan, Buddhatamsaka-Mahavaipulya-s ū tra talks about the pure land of lotus and Tibetan, and Ghana -vy sha-sūtra talks about strict pure land and so on. However, among all the pure lands, Maitreya Pure Land, Miaoxi Pure Land and Tomi Pure Land have a wide influence. Among them, Tomi Pure Land is the most popular, and it has even become a holy land for the descendants of Pure Land Sect. Amitabha Pure Land is not only famous for its many classics (Note: It is estimated that about one third of the existing Mahayana Buddhist scriptures praise Amitabha. See Ren's History of Buddhism in China, vol. 1, China Social Sciences Press, 198 1 Edition, p. 439. ), but also because of its wonderful stories and legends and simple and easy methods, attracted all beings. Mahayana Buddhism believes that except for Sakyamuni Buddha, all who consciously and feel his perfection are Buddhas. Because of the vast space of the Buddhist country, there are three generations of ten Buddhas (note: there are three kinds of Buddhas, namely, the pharmacist Buddha in the pure glass world of the East, the Sakyamuni Buddha in the mother world, and the Amitabha Buddha in the paradise of the West; Li III Buddha is Ye Jia Buddha in the past, Sakyamuni Buddha in the present and Maitreya Buddha in the future. Four Buddhas, one is four-faced Buddha, namely Acheng Buddha in the oriental fragrance world, Treasure Buddha in the southern bliss world, Amitabha Buddha in the western bliss world and subtle Buddha in the northern lotus world; One is the four buddhas of the past: the detention of Sun Buddha, the detention of Nahan Buddha, Kaye Buddha and Sakyamuni Buddha. )。 Amitabha, the founder of Western Pure Land Sect. According to Amitabha Sutra and Amitabha Sutra, Amitabha was originally a king and abandoned his country and became a monk. He accepted Buddhism from "Loke vararaja Buddha" and was awarded the No.48 Dharma Body. (Note: The newly revised Zheng Da Tibetan Scriptures (hereinafter referred to as Zheng Da Tibetan Scriptures) is Volume XII, printed by the Buddhist Education Foundation of Taiwan Province Province, page 268. It is said that after "no central robbery, accumulated virtue", Fazang finally became a Buddha, named Amitabha (or translated Amitabha). Because the Buddhist country where he lives is a perfect pure land of bliss, his role is to attract those who wish to go to the pure land of the West, so it is also called "recruiting Buddha".

Amitabha Pure Land Belief originated in the northwest of India, and was introduced to China in the Eastern Han Dynasty (Note: Puhui: The Rise of Maitreya Amitabha Belief, paper exchange at the 2002 Emei Mountain International Symposium on Chinese Folk Belief, to be published. )。 During the Jin and Song Dynasties, it was highly valued and favored by monks and customs in China. According to Hong Guangming Ji, which has been published for fifteen years, in the early years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Zhi Daolin, one of the six schools of Prajna, ordered craftsmen to make a statue of Amitabha and wrote a eulogy: "In the last five years of the Jin Dynasty, there were worshippers who satirized the Amitabha Sutra and vowed to live in that country. Those who were not sincere died and turned around. When he saw the Buddha, he understood the Tao. " (Note: Pu Hui: Mahayana Nirvana and Xie Lingyun's Landscape Poems, Journal of Shaanxi Normal University, No.4, 2000. ) At the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Hui Yuan inherited the legacy of Tomi, a pure land of the previous generation, and practiced in Lushan together with celebrities and sages: "Liu Pengcheng Yimin, Lei Cizong, Yanmen Zhou, Xin Cai Bi Yingzhi, Nanyang, Zhang, Zhang Jishuo, etc. And abandon the world heritage and travel far away. Far in front of the statue of infinite life in the Jingshe, Jane vowed to travel to the Western Heaven. It was Liu's adherents who wrote this passage: "I was only one year old when I filmed Teague, which was the last day of the fifth and 28th of July. The mage released Hui Yuan, feeling deep, with white hair. Twenty-three people, instructed by Comrade Yan Yan, set their minds at ease and were faithful. In the shadow of Lushan Mountain, they gathered in front of the Buddha statue of Prajna Paramita and took the oath under the recommendation of Xianghua. (Noe: Hui Jue: Biography of Monks Volume 6 Biography of Hui Yuan, proofread by Tang Yongtong, Zhonghua Book Company, 1992, p. 2 14. Huiyuan, the leader of the Buddhist jungle in the south of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, converted to the pure land of Maitreya as a teacher (Note: The Biography of Gaofen, Volume V, The Biography of Daoan: "An Mei and her disciples met with the law and so on, and vowed to live before Maitreya." (Tang Yongtong's proofreading note, Zhonghua Book Company, 1992 edition, p. 183)) advocates the belief of amitabha's bliss world and pushes the belief of pure land from bodhisattva (Maitreya is bodhisattva) to a higher level of Buddha (amitabha is Buddha). Hui Yuan organized a wish activity for the western paradise, which had a great influence on the southern government and the forest, especially the participation of some famous scholars, which further promoted the spread of Tommy's belief in the paradise in society. Therefore, later generations regarded Hui Yuan as the ancestor of China Pure Land Sect.
