Description:
Sukhavati is the blissful Buddha field of Amitabha. One of the Buddha fields of the 5 families, said to be located in the western direction.
Since this prayer belongs to the sutra tradition you may chant it without receiving a ritual reading transmission.
According to Jamgon Ngawang Lekpa, the 4 causes of rebirth in Sukhavati are:
1. Generating bodhicitta (the compassionate wish to attain enlightenment for the benefit of all sentient beings).
2. Accumulating merit in many ways.
3. Often bringing the Buddha field to mind.
4. Dedicating all one’s sources of merit as causes for rebirth in that pure realm.

Amitabha is a celestial Buddha described in the scriptures of the Mahayana school of Buddhism.
He is the principal Buddha in the Pure Land sect, a branch of Buddhism practiced mainly in East Asia, while in Vajrayana Amitabha is known for his longevity attribute and the aggregate of distinguishing (recognition) and the deep awareness of individualities.
According to the scriptures, Amitabha possesses infinite merits resulting from good deeds over countless past lives as a Bodhisattva named Dharmakara. He is translatable as “Infinite Light”, hence Amitabha is often called “The Buddha of Infinite Light”.
Amitabha Buddha emanates ruby red light. Red symbolizes love and compassion.
Like the setting sun, his radiant form warms and pacifies the hearts of all who gaze at him. As head of the Lotus family, he represents gentleness and openness. This reflects his boundless compassion and receptivity enabling one to feel accepted and protected.
His posture is one of composure and stillness. There is a serene smile of blissful wisdom on his face. He sits in the aspect of meditating, encouraging the viewer to follow the essential teaching of the Buddha, “to subdue one’s mind”.
