Amitayurdhyana Sutra
The ''Amitāyurdhyāna Sūtra'' (Sanskrit; ), is one of the three major sūtras found within Pure Land Buddhism, a branch of Mahāyāna Buddhism. Amitāyus is another name for the buddha Amitābha, the preeminent figure in Pure Land Buddhism, and this sūtra focuses mainly on meditations involving complex visualization. This is reflected in the name of the sūtra, which translates to the "Amitāyus Meditation Sūtra."
It is considered by modern scholarship to be apocryphal, of Chinese origin.〔Fujita, "The Textual Origins of the Kuan Wu-liang-shou ching: A Canonical Scripture of Pure Land Buddhism", in Buswell, Robert E.; ed. (1990). Chinese Buddhist Apocrypha, Honolulu: University of Hawaii Press, ISBN 0585349630〕 The Sanskrit name and Sanskrit versions are thus reverse translations. According to Paul Williams, a more accurate Sanskrit title for this text would be ''Amitāyurbuddhānusmṛti Sūtra'', meaning "Amitāyus Buddha-mindfulness Sūtra."〔Williams, Paul. ''Mahayana Buddhism: The Doctrinal Foundations, 2nd edition.'' Routledge, 2009, p. 239〕
