“The Buddha said to Ananda, ‘The
majestic virtue of Amitayus is boundless. All the innumerable, countless, and
inconceivable Buddha Tathagatas in the worlds of the ten directions praise
Him.’”[2]
Whenever
we read about such praise by all Buddhas we should know it also means praising Amida’s
method of salvation which, among the methods invented by all Buddhas, it is the
easiest to bring ALL beings, no matter their spiritual evolution, to the
attainment of Nirvana. By praising Amida and His merits, they automatically praise
His Name as all His merits are manifested into His Name which is easy to
pronounce by anybody. All such praising are related with the 17th
Vow where Dharmakara promised that when He becomes Amida, all Buddhas will
praise His Name.
