Vairochana

Vairochana, the “Resplendent One,” represents the eternal Dharma Body of whom Sakyamuni and all other Buddhas are transformations. His Pure Land is the Flower Store World, which is none other than the whole universe when experienced correctly. Although a wide range of Mahayana Buddhists display reverence for Vairochana, this Buddha is especially important in certain forms of Esoteric Buddhism in Japan.
