APARMITA - is the name given to Amitabha in his charactor of bestower of longevity. Aparmita may be turned either a "Crawned Buddha or a Bodhisatwa and is therefore richly clad and wears the thirteen ornaments. His hair is painted blue and falls on either side of his elbows or may be curiously coiled. He is seated like a Buddha and his hands lie on his lap in Dhyana Mudra holding the ambrosia vase, his special emblem. The vase is richly decorated and from the cover fall four strings of beads which represent sacred pills.

For obtaining long life the lamaist cremony is held in the curious mixture of Buddhism and demon-worship. In the preliminary worship, the pills made from buttered dough and the ambrosia brewed from spirit or beer and offered in a skull bowl to the great image of Aparmita.
