You can hear the Buddha's name, you have gained immeasurable merit

Buddhāvataṃsaka Sūtra
A Commentary by the Venerable Master Hsuan Hua
Although the worlds are numerous as dust particles, there may not necessarily be Buddhas spinning the Dharma Wheel and teaching all living beings. In the vast world with so many motes of dust, there is only one "Buddha" who has achieved enlightenment in that world to teach and educate all living beings. If you can hear the Buddha's name, you have gained immeasurable merit. As the saying goes, "Buddha's name once touches the ears, and it will always be the seed of the Tao." If you have a predestined relationship with this Buddha and hear his name, you will suddenly become enlightened and gain great liberation.
