You might have heard of "Namo Amituofo" (Namo Amitabha, 南無阿彌陀佛). What does it mean? Here is some simple quotes of the meaning of Namo Amituofo.
"Namo Amitabha Buddha" (meaning homage to the Amitabha Buddha, and the name "Amitabha" means boundless light and infinite life), "Amitabha Buddha," or simply, but with equal reverence, "Amitabha."
~ Quoted from On Chanting…
「舍利弗。於汝意云何？彼佛何故號阿彌陀？」
「舍利弗。彼佛光明無量，照十方國，無所障礙，是故號為阿彌陀。」
「又舍利弗。彼佛壽命，及其人民，無量無邊阿僧祇劫，故名阿彌陀。」
~ 節錄自佛說阿彌陀經
I have also included a few quotes about 老實念佛 on the forum.
