Medicine Buddha is the embodiment of all enlightened healing and a reflection of our own potential for enlightenment. By relying on Medicine Buddha we can receive a special power of body, speech, and mind, which we can then use to help others through healing actions. It is said that the power of this practice becomes greater as confusion and conflict in this world increase, so this practice is especially vital for us now.

• His body of blue wisdom light indicates that he is an emanation of the healing power of all the Buddhas,

• His left hand holds a bowl filled with medicinal nectar and his right hand holds a medicinal plant.
