MEDICINE BUDDHA Card By Robert Beer. Iconography explained. #BDC20 - $ 1.50 (Tibetan: Sangye Menla) The meditation practice of the Medicine Buddha is employed to removed all afflictions of body, speech, and mind. He is also known as the 'King of Vaidurya Light', where the Sanskrit term vaidurya- meaning blue beryl- describes his radiance of lapis-lazuli light. He is seated in vajra-posture upon a moon disc and lotus, and wears the three monastic robes of a Buddha. His right hand is extended downwards in the boon-granting gesture of generosity, and he holds the stem of a triple-fruited myrobalan between his thumb and index finger. His left hand rests upon his lap in the gesture of a meditation and holds a blue alms-bowl of vaidurya gemstone, which contains medicinal nectar and another myobalan fruit. In Tibetan medicine the myrobalan (aruna) is known as the 'King of Medicines'. In the two lower corners are offerings of colored jewels. | |
