		Aksobhya means immovable, and Vajrasattva means vajra being; they both indicate toughness, solidness.

	GlossaryA of Meditation and Buddhist Terms - Meditation in Action - Nyingje Companions-
		This Buddha and his Buddha land are described in the Smaller Pure Land Sutra (T366-367) and the Greater Sukhavati Sutra (T360, 361-4).
		These Sutras, as well as others such as the Aksobhya Buddha Sutra, served as the central scriptures for a populist practice intended for the lay Indian Buddhists incapable or uninterested in delving into the intricate philosophies and meditations of monastic Buddhism.
		Although there is no evidence that they were the center of any organized sect of Indian Buddhism, when these Sutras were translated into Chinese, they soon developed around them a cult which would blossom during the Tang dynasty (618-907 AD) into a full fledged sect of Chinese Buddhism, called the ' Pure Land ' Sect.
