According to Buddhist lore, Manjushri felt compassion for the people of China because they lived so far from India, where Lord [[Gautama]] had incarnated. He therefore took a vow to help the people of China and established his Pure Land in the Five-Mountain Paradise of northern China. A Pure Land is a spiritual realm or paradise presided over by a Buddha, a place created by Buddhas for their disciples that is ideal for their discipleship. | According to Buddhist lore, Manjushri felt compassion for the people of China because they lived so far from India, where Lord [[Gautama]] had incarnated.
