The Medicine Buddha, known as Bhaisayaguru in Sanskrit, is renowned for his twelve profound vows following his Enlightenment.
He is seated in a meditative posture known as Dhyana Asana, he sits gracefully on a lotus-petal pedestal, legs crossed and the soles of his feet turned upward. In his left hand, he cradles a jar of healing medicine with a serene palm facing upward, symbolizing meditative serenity. His right hand gently clutches the stem of the Aruna fruit or Myrobalan, nestled on his right knee, representing the embodiment of the world's finest remedies. While his left-hand holds the medicine alms bowl. This hand signifies the eradication of suffering through the realm of relative truth. Draped in monastic robes that envelop both shoulders but leave the chest area open, Medicine Buddha embodies the profound wisdom of healing and compassion.
