@kurosaki_buddhist: Replying to @julio.gjn What is the difference between Shakyamuni Buddha and Amitabha Buddha? ☸️ #foryou #buddhism #buddhismtiktok #pureland #amitabha

GARY :

are they different persons?

Sunama Bright Light :

Delusion is the greatest hindrance to enlightenment.

Lois :

a frequency then...

Kriss Universe :

there have been few Buddha's. remember Buddha is not a God but a beigin of pure enlightenment. you can become Buddha. yes it's easier said then done that's why so few . 🥰

gogo :

Shakamuni Buddha said he never should've taught the Pure Lsnd sutra because people would twist the main purpose of the sutra. It's a expediate means type sutra that doesn't reveal to true nature of enlightenment, only the Lotus Sutra is the true teaching.

gegegegegenoge :

Is there any Buddha outside Buddhism?

Thor_Ragnar :

One is historical who has archeological evidence, one is mythical and fictional who doesn’t has any evidence of existence. One act like guider , another one act like savior.

君　斗　礼　Khun Two Lay :

One Buddha , but people followed the way Mahayana and Theravada !

tiklau8 :

Mahayana school was created after 500 years of the passing away of Sakyamuni Buddha by the Brahmins who were trying to destroy the true teachings of Sakyamuni Buddha. Emperor Asoka sent his son who was an Arahant too to Ceylon (Sri Lanka) to spread the true teachings knowing the wickedness of those Brahmins. They hate Sakyamuni Buddha becoz he was against the caste system of the old Brahmins.

juliakhoo985 :

This is actually Mahayana Buddhism but not therevada. Therevada nv talk abt pure land . Guatama Buddha said only in the human realm r able to attain Buddhahood .

jimmy :

I thought there is only one Buddha 🤔

KIDS LULLABY :

Buddha was already a heavenly God who wanted to know the suffering of human he called his other five God (heavenly brother) and made a decision to be born in realm of human world and then you know the story

zigzag :

There is no sclupture in Tipitaka about this. Anything outside Tipitaka is not Sakyamuni Buddha Gautama teaching

alie.mogallan :

so.. where is pure land? according to 31 realm of Sakyamuni Buddha's teaching?

Spirit of zen :

I always understood amitabhas pure land to be an ideal to aspire to,an enlightened blissful state of being rather than an actual realm or place

Drukyོuel :

Did anybody see Pure land? Where?

Annie :

So amitabha created Buddhism not shakyumuni because he existed first?

中微子 :

Buddha means the enlightenment one, an objective condition ,hence there are many Buddhas who have reached out to the same condition throughout the ages. A Buddha doesn't resemble an appearance but a state of mind and virtue. Pure land concept is the path to continue Buddhism cultivation for those feelings to further accomplish his or her path after the present life. " to reap on one's sow." 阿弥陀佛🙏The perfect intuition!

Sunama Bright Light :

Buddha did not talk about Amithabha Buddha, and there is no Amithabha pure land in Buddha's teaching.

Xacc HH :

When Mahāyāna Buddhism began emerging (around the 1st century BCE to 1st century CE), it did not completely throw away early Buddhism. Instead, it built on top of it. Teachings like the Noble Eightfold Path and the Five Spiritual Faculties (Faith, Energy, Mindfulness, Concentration, and Wisdom) are considered the universal, non-negotiable foundations of all Buddhism. A text cannot be recognized as "Buddhist" if it completely rejects these core formulas. Therefore, the Amitābha Sūtra includes them to show that the Pure Land path is a legitimate way to achieve the exact same enlightenment the historical Buddha taught. The Pāli Canon was essentially "closed" or stabilized as a distinct collection by the Theravāda school in Sri Lanka during the 1st century BCE (at the Fourth Buddhist Council). Because the Amitābha Sūtra was composed later in Northern India and written in Sanskrit rather than Pāli, it was physically and historically impossible for it to be included in the Pāli Canon. The Theravāda lineage rejected it as an uncanonical, external development, while the Mahāyāna schools embraced it as a deeper, "expedient" teaching (Upāya) spoken by the Buddha to a select audience. In short, the Amitābha Sūtra quotes the Pāli Canon's core curriculum to prove its Buddhist orthodoxy, but its cosmic scope, reliance on Amitāhba, and separate historical origin keep it strictly in the Mahāyāna tradition.

Kiko|Walk For Peace ☸️ :

Sadhu Thank you so much for your wonderful insight of Pure Land

? :

its the same as the difference as is between Superman and Sentry.

Mardsua :

Ooohh, this is like a more Mahayana school approach. Reaching pureland and helping others. I'm from old school I think, as we are taught if we can't save ourselves, how we can save others. So we are internally focus of enlightenment. And it will impact our surrounding.

PossibleBuggane? :

I really feel and connect with the Bodhisattva ideal in Mahayana Buddhism. I feel trying to separate myself and others to be impossible, I'm so tightly tied to the circumstances of my birth, like everything in Samsara. Understanding that I am all, and all is me, is understanding that we as people are all connected. So how could I reach enlightenment before myself? Or how could I (in good conscience) reach enlightenment when I know myself remains trapped in Samsara? So I use this life to practice the The Noble Eightfold Path, while teaching, or assisting anyone that interacts with me (a leaf) in life(the river). I don't know where life will take me, but regardless "Creations are numberless, I vow to free them. Delusions are inexhaustible, I vow to transform them. For no one is alone, and only through saving all, do we save ourselves. Reality is boundless, I vow to perceive it. The Awakened Way is unsurpassable, I vow to embody it"
