the Buddha of Infinite Compassion

Do they have a Buddha for everything? Our Buddha of Indefinite Compression seems to be busy on Wall Street.

Ahhhh, yes Grasshopper.....
there is Sanjye Menla (Medicine Buddha), Amitabha (the Buddha of Infinite Light), Chenrizik (the Buddha of Infinite Compassion), Vajradhara (the primordial Buddha), Samantabhadra, Vajrapani, Green Tara, White Tara, etc.

However, it is very confusing at times determining whether these are being referred to as actual dieties or whether they are being referred to as "enlightened states of mind".
