Are Amita Buddha and Gotama Buddha not one and the same? 阿彌陀佛和釋迦牟尼佛不是一個(gè)人嗎?
No, Amita Buddha or Amitābha is the Buddha of another world. The Chinese term "Amituofo" is the transliteration from Sanskrit of "Amitābha", meaning "boundless light". 不是。阿彌陀佛是另外一個(gè)世界上的佛。阿彌陀佛是梵語Amitābha的音譯,意義是“無量的光明”。
