Pure land

Pure Land is the concept of a celestial realm of a buddha or bodhisattva in Mahayana Buddhism where many Buddhists aspire to be reborn in.

The term "Pure Land" is particular to East Asian Buddhism (Chinese: 淨土; pinyin: Jìngtǔ) and related traditions. In Sanskrit Buddhist sources, the equivalent concept is called a buddha-field (Sanskrit: buddhakṣetra) or more technically a pure buddha-field (viśuddhabuddhakṣetra).

The various traditions that focus on attaining rebirth in a Pure Land have been termed Pure Land Buddhism. Pure Lands are also evident in the literature and traditions of Taoism and Bon.
