Hand painted Bhaisajyaguru, Medicine Buddha, Original Master Quality Mandala Tibetan Thanka / Thangka / Compassion Meditation Painting

MEDICINE BUDDHA – THE SUPREME HEALER WITH TWO DISCIPLES
Noble One, you should think of yourself as someone who is sick, Of the Dharma as the remedy
Of the Buddha as a skillful doctor
And of your diligent practice as the way to recovery

The Medicine Buddha, or Bhaisajyaguru, is the Buddha of Healing. Meditating on the Medicine Buddha (shown in this Medicine Buddha Statue Copper) is considered to be a powerful method for increasing healing powers, allowing practitioners to alleviate their own sufferings as well as those of others. Through his boundless compassion and generosity, Bhaisajyaguru helps sincere seekers overcome physical illness and infirmity. But even more importantly, the Buddha is the skillful doctor who heals the great disease afflicting all sentient beings. By providing the Dharma as a profound antidote to the poisons of attachment, hatred, and ignorance, he lifts the veil of delusion and points the way to freedom.

The Buddha has depicted with his right hand extended downward, palm open, with thumb and index finger touching. This posture is known as Varada Mudra or the gesture of granting wishes. This mudra symbolizes Bhaisajyaguru’s kindness, charity, and compassion toward all beings. On the same hand, he lightly grasps a sprig of the Myrobalan plant, an important healing herb in Ayurvedic medicine. It is believed that this plant has the power not only to heal the body, but also to free one from the inner sicknesses of attachment, hatred, and ignorance. His left-hand lies in his lap with his palm upward in the gesture of meditation (Dhyana Mudra), representing the eradication of all sickness and suffering through the realization of absolute truth. On the same hand, he holds the traditional begging bowl of an ordained Buddhist monk. The bowl contains sacred medicinal nectar that cures all ills, hindrances, and obstacles.

More About Mandala

No one knows for sure when mandalas were first created, but both ancient and modern cultures use them as objects of meditation. Wherever they appear across the globe,
mandalas take a similar form: a circle containing a symbolic geometric design. To the Aztecs, a mandala also served as a calendar with symbols representing the gods.
Another depicted the weather. Celtic mandalas often represented the holy trinity. In Hindu tradition, the deities often hold the center of the mandala (Sanskrit for circle)
until it is destroyed at the end of a ritual. The astrological zodiac still in use today is a mandala. To Buddhists, mandala designs often were—and continue to be—sacred depictions
of the universe and its many deities.

A mandala is a geometric configuration of symbols. In various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for focusing the attention of practitioners and adepts,
as a spiritual guidance tool, for establishing a sacred space, and as an aid to meditation and trance induction. In the Eastern religions of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism,
and Shintoism it is used as a map representing deities, or especially in the case of Shintoism, paradises, kami, or actual shrines. A mandala generally represents the spiritual journey,
starting from the outside to the inner core, through layers.
