Profile

Origin

Vairocana[a] (lit. "solar one"), also known as Mahavairocana (lit. "great solar one"),[b] is a cosmic Buddha in Mahayana Buddhism.

The Megami Tensei franchise identifies Vairocana as the same as Asura Lord, possibly due to Virocana,[c] an asura king in Hinduism. For more info, see Asura Lord's page.

Game Appearances

Shin Megami Tensei II

Vairocana, also known as Dainichi-Nyorai, presides over the Chesed Temple, taking in lost souls and offering them salvation, regardless of their sins or deeds. He is also the master of the 12 Divine Generals, though he lends them to Atavaka to help him guard Fort Gevurah.[1] If Aleph goes to Vairocana and is Chaos-aligned, he simply tells him never to attempt justifying the evils he has done and sends him on his way. If Aleph is Neutral or Law-aligned, however, Vairocana will call him a servant of YHVH and attack, only to be killed in turn.

If Aleph visited Vairocana on the Chaos route, the encounters in Old Ichigaya and the Old Government Office will change.

Trivia

Nomenclature

The specific Japanese spelling ヴィローシャナ Virōshana appears to in part be influenced by the Sino-Japanese rendering 毘盧遮那 Birushana and the Japanese name of the asura lord Virocana, ヴィローチャナ Virōchana.

Dainichi Nyorai is the Sino-Japanese reading of Vairocana's Middle Chinese epithet 大日如來 dajH nyit nyo loj, a calque of Sanskrit: महावैरोचन, romanized mahāvairocana (Great Vairocana; literally 'great solar one') and Sanskrit: तथागत, romanized tathāgata (tathagata, a term of address to a buddha; literally 'thus come/gone').
