Akshobhya (Immovable One) is one of the five Dhyani Buddhas, along with Ratnasambhava, Vairocana, Amitabha, and Amoghasiddhi.

He originates from the blue seed mantra “Hum” and when He became a Buddha and reached enlightenment, Akshobhya was given charge over the eastern paradise, called The Ultimate Joy (Pure Land Abhirati).

His consort is Lochana (Lochana is said to be similar in nature to Lord Vairochana) and He is normally accompanied by two elephants.

Akshobhya Buddha is mentioned in a few Mahayana sutras, but mostly He is known from the Vimalakirti Nirdesa (the sutra that teaches the meaning of Nondualism).

The Buddha Akshobhya established with the enlightened intention that all sentient beings could purify any degree of non virtue. Even the extreme non virtue of hatred, violence, and killing can be cleansed through relying on him as the focus of meditation, acknowledging and abandoning non virtuous actions, and invoking his blessings of purification. 

In the Akshobhya sutra, the Buddha Sakyamuni himself extolled the perseverance of Akshobhya in actualizing this intention so powerfully that countless beings have been saved from the intense suffering of the lower states of existence.

Akshobhya meditation can liberate, not only the practitioner him or herself from the fear of inauspicious rebirth, but other beings as well. Akshobhya explicitly promised that the merit generated by reciting one-hundred-thousand of his long Dhayani mantra and creating an image of him could be dedicated to another person,  even someone long deceased, and they would be assured of release from lower states of existence and rebirth in spiritually fortunate circumstances. 

Recognizing the superb opportunity of their own connection with Akshobhya, hundreds of people have either performed this practice themselves or sponsored it, dedicating the merit to others for whom they felt compassionate concern.

Only an omniscient wisdom being can fully discern an individual's past actions and their outflows in present experience, but the Buddhist teachings indicate that death during the passage toward birth (by miscarriage or abortion), death before adulthood, violent or fearful death, and suicide are signs that the deceased might have difficulties in obtaining fortunate, spiritually well-endowed rebirth. Such beings could benefit from the merit of a hundred thousand Akshobhya recitations and the creation of an Akshobhya image.

* Footnote 

For those who had received the empowerment of this Tantric practice, you are reminded not intentionally or unintentionally to disclose the mantra to the public or anyone who may not have the empowerment or permission to practice, and by disclosing the mantra intentionally or unintentionally is a form of breaking your Tantric Samaya vows to the lineage masters and Dharma protectors. 

Please consult your Guru or a qualified lineage master for Vajrayana practice! Should a devotee even want to start studying and contemplating the Vajrayana practice, then it is truly necessary to first have completed the preliminaries and to be certain and sure that Bodhicitta has arisen and developed in one’s mind.

Vajrayana features countless skillful and powerful methods which, if they are practiced in the proper way, can make the process of accumulation and purification incredibly swift and direct. It is absolutely necessary to have the pure motivation and to know that Vajrayana practice is not carried out to increase one’s own ego, power and self-interests.

Aspiration For Bodhichitta

For those in whom the precious Bodhichitta has not arisen

May it arise and not decrease

But increase further and further.

Dedication of Merit

By this merit may we obtain omniscience then.

Having defeated the enemies wrong-doings.

May we liberate migratory from the ocean of existence.

With its stormy waves of birth, old age, sickness and death.
