Sukhavati

Sukhavati is a Sanskrit term that refers to the Pure Land of the Buddha Amitabha. A translation of this word might be "Place of Great Bliss".

Check this one out; Joseph Campbell's "hypnotic and mesmerizing film.....a deeply personal, almost spiritual portrait"

Sukhavati (in Campbell's words)
We're in a free fall into future. We don't know where we're going. Things are changing so fast. And always when you're going through a long tunnel, anxiety comes along. But all you have to do to transform you hell into a paradise is to turn your fall into a voluntary act. Its a very interesting shift of perspective...Joyfully participate in the sorrows of the world and everything changes."
