| 抄録 | The origin of the Amida Buddha is not clarified as yet. The present author paid attention to the
fact that this Buddha has two epithets, that is, Amitābha (infinite light) and Amitāyus (infinite
life). These two were derived from the inherent and indivisible characteristics of gold that
covered the body of gilt Śākyamuni Buddha images made in Gandhara. This conclusion is
supported by the BODDO image on the Kaniṣka I ’s gold coins, that is adorned with a round
smaller nimbus and an elliptical mandorla connected with another round bigger nimbus, and
also by the two Gandhara relief panels that appear to represent the seated preaching Amida
Buddha with a round nimbus and mandorla (aureole). This unprecedented special device of halo
signifies infinite light and life of the Amida Buddha.
