As an early text of Mahayana Buddhism, Sukhavativyuha sutra reserves some elements belonging to initial stage of Mahayana Buddhism. By investigating these elements, the interaction among Pure-land Buddhism and other Buddhist doctrines would be observable. This paper deals with the connection between thoughts of Pure-land Buddhism and Avatamsaka from a perspective of Sukhavativyuha sutra. Especially, both doctrines emphasize and recommend Bodhisattva Samantabhadra's vows and deeds as a paradigm, which has long been conceived as a distinguished feature revealing the relationship between Pure-land Buddhism and Avatamsaka doctrine in Bhadracaryapranidhana gata. In summary, the investigation shows that the characteristics of Samantabhadra and his deeds have occupied a significant role as a bridge and would link doctrines of Pure-land Buddhism and Avatamsaka. By analyzing the interaction between both doctrines, it would be possible to determine the meditating Buddha in the cella. It turns out that, the Buddha in cella probably represents Amitabha Buddha rather then Vairocana. Tabo as a case, displays that the practices of Mahayanic bodhisattva revealed in Avatamsaka merged with the belief of Pure-land tradition and such a trend became more intensive when it came to the time of latter Mahayana Buddhism.
