Pure Land


 
 

Pure Land Buddhism (Chinese: 净土宗, J?ngtǔzōng; Japanese: 浄土宗, Jōdoshū; Vietnamese: ???, T?nh ?? T?ng), also known as Amidism, is a branch of Mahayana Buddhism and currently one of the most dominant schools of Buddhism in East Asia. It is the devotional or "faith"-oriented school of Buddhism, emphasizing rituals, and has become the mainstream branch of Mahayana Buddhism as a whole. Less practiced schools in Mahayana include Chan, Zen and Yuzu Nembutsu. In China, Pure Land and Chan are often practised concurrently.
