The 35 Buddhas, also known as the "35 Confession Buddhas," are a group of buddhas that are venerated in some forms of Buddhism, particularly in the Vajrayana tradition. They are said to have the power to purify the negative karma of individuals who confess their negative actions to them. The 35 Buddhas are usually depicted in sets of statues or mandalas and each of them is associated with a specific quality or attribute. Some of the most well-known among them are Dharmadhatu-Vajra: He represents the pure, unchanging nature of reality. Vairocana: He represents the Dharmakaya, the ultimate reality of all things. Ratnasambhava: He represents the perfection of generosity and is associated with the element of earth. Amitabha: He represents the perfection of morality and is associated with the element of fire. Aksobhya: He represents the perfection of patience and is associated with the element of water. Amoghasiddhi: He represents the perfection of effort and is associated with the element of air. The practice of confessing negative actions to the 35 Buddhas is said to help purify the mind and remove obstacles on the path to enlightenment. This practice is often done in conjunction with other practices such as visualization, meditation, and reciting mantras. In some traditions, practitioners recite the names of the 35 Buddhas and make prostrations to them as a way to purify their negative actions. They also make offerings to these Buddhas and make prayers to them for protection and guidance.
