Burning Buddha (Sanskrit d and d: pa? Kara, born on August 22nd of the lunar calendar, is one of the thousand buddhas born in the solemn robbery in the past. Because everything around you was as bright as a lamp when you were born, you were named Burning Buddha. Also known as Yuanbao Buddha, Dingguang Buddha, Yuanbao Buddha, Dingguang Buddha and Puguang Buddha. Burning Buddha is one of the past Buddhas in the Third World, also known as the present Buddha Sakyamuni and the future Buddha Maitreya.
The ancient Buddha used to light lanterns to record the Buddha nature of Sakyamuni and predicted that he would become a Buddha in the future. The Diamond Sutra says, "A good man should become a Buddha in the next life, and his name is Sakyamuni." Sakyamuni Buddha majored in this life and is a secular Buddha. The burning Buddha was restored to the past Buddha. Maitreya, who majored in the future, is one of the three leaders of the future Buddha and Buddhism. Because everything around him was as bright as a lamp when he was born, he was called Burning Buddha, also called Dingguang Buddha or Yuanbao Buddha.
