Medicine Buddha Thangka
This Medicine Buddha thangka depicts the Medicine Buddha, Bhaisajyaguru, a central figure in Tibetan Buddhism associated with healing. This piece serves as a beautiful and powerful focal point for healing practices, meditation, and invoking blessings for the well-being of all beings. It is a traditional representation of the Buddha of Healing, painted with meticulous detail and vibrant mineral pigments, along with 24K gold.
The thangka shows him seated in a meditation posture, with a brilliant, lapis lazuli blue body. His right hand rests upon his knee in the mudra of supreme generosity, holding the stem of a myrobalan plant, while his left hand rests in his lap in the meditation mudra holding a begging bowl filled with medicinal nectar and herbs.
Surrounded by a golden aura and seated on a lotus throne, he is set against a serene landscape of trees and a flowing river. Offerings of fruit and other sacred items are arranged at his feet.
Medicine Buddha's mantra is: Tadyatha Om Bhaisajye Bhaisajye Maha Bhaisajye Raja Samudgate Svaha
