Amitabha, Amityus or Amida is a Buddha of Mahayana and Vajrayana Buddhism. He reigns over the "Pure Western Land of Beatitude" (sk.: Sukh-vat, ch.: X-f-ng jelè sh-jiè, ja.: saih-goraku sekai極樂), a wonderful, pure, perfect world, devoid of evil, of suffering. This pure land, a place of refuge outside the cycle of transmigrations - or the equivalent of nirvàa according to certain conceptions - is at the center of the beliefs and practices of the schools of the Pure Land. This Buddha, also known as the Buddha Buddha, is very popular among Mahayists, especially in the Chinese world, Korea, Japan, Tibet and Vietnam.

In terms of symbols, the Buddha, sitting under the bodhi tree, experiences two things. First of all, he saw a Ferris wheel. This wheel embraces the whole of conditioned existence, it is of the same extent as the cosmos, it contains all living beings. It rotates non-stop: it turns day and night, it turns life after life, it turns era after era. We cannot see when it has begun to turn, and we cannot yet see when it will stop turning: only a Buddha sees this.

The belière depicts Garuda, a fabulous bird man from Hindu and then Buddhist mythology, son of Kashyapa and Vinatâ and brother of Aruna, the driver of the chariot of the god Sureya. It is the vâhana, or mount, of the god Vishnu. He is also considered the king of birds.
In Tibet, Khyung (ཁྱུང) is the Tibetan name for Garuda. Coming from India, he was likened to the khading of the Bun religion, the golden-horned eagle. The black garuda is a deity of the nyingmapa school of Tibetan Buddhism that is held to suppress the affections caused by the naga and spirits of the earth. It's on the Lungta. He is represented in the iconography of Shambhala by Chogyam Trungpa for whom he is associated with significant speed and power. Like the phoenix, it rises from the ashes of destruction, it is indestructible.
