Medicine Buddha Originally Hand-Painted On Cotton Canvas
About our Thangka
The Medicine Buddha Thangka is a magnificent piece of hand-painted art on cotton canvas, meticulously crafted with vivid acrylic paints and accented with 24K gold. The tranquil presence of the Medicine Buddha, a respected deity in Tibetan Buddhism renowned for his healing abilities and kind demeanor, is masterfully captured in this lovely painting. Gold is an ideal focal point for any altar or meditation room since it not only provides a sacred element to the Thangka but also increases its visual richness.
The Buddha's disciples, perhaps Suryaprabha and Maudalyana, who are both portrayed in conventional Thangkas, flank the primary figure. Their presence emphasizes the artwork's spiritual value by symbolizing the harmony of light and healing. In addition to being a stunning ornamental item, this Medicine Buddha Thangka also serves as a potent reminder of the wisdom and healing powers that Buddhism has to offer. This Thangka is a treasured addition to any collection and may help you bring serenity and spiritual depth into your home.
Introduction to Medicine Buddha Thangka
Medicine buddha or the healing buddha is said to dispense spiritual medicine when properly worshipped. It is even believed that an efficacious cure may be accomplished by merely touching the image. His right-hand holds a branch of the myrobalan plant in the varadamudra posture or the giving gesture. His left hand is on his lap, holding a lapis lazuli pindapatra or a container containing medicines.
The Buddha has long-lobed ears and curly hair. He wears a monastic robe and is seated cross-legged. The blue or lapis lazuli color of the body symbolizes that he accepts all the diseases and sicknesses of all suffering beings. The plant myrobalan represents medicine, which heals all the sicknesses of sentient beings.
Medicine Buddha is said to be the source of all medical treatises in the Tibetan medical tradition. This Buddha is invoked to eliminate disasters and sicknesses of all kinds.
