Medicine Buddha Practice

The Medicine Buddha is a Tibetan Buddhist practice that one could do either for sick person or for group of people or for all sentient beings. This practice used to be restricted and given to only those with the empowerment for the practice, but things have loosened up quite a bit since then. This practice presented transliterated in Tibetan or in English is a wonderful way for channeling all your healing energy to helping people with physical or mental problems.

The book includes the practice in translated English and Tibetan and si accompanied by Thrangu Rinoche's extensive teaching on the Medicine Buddha Sutra by explaining the twelve aspirations, the benefits of reciting the Medicine Buddha's name, the meaning of deity, nature of the four maras, and the transcendence of obstacles. Rinpoche also elucidates the details of the practice: deities, the buddha realms, the samayasattva and jnanasattva aspects, the use of offerings, mudras, and as well as the five aspects of intrinsic awareness.

"Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche is among the wisest and most compassionate Buddhist masters alive today."— Pema Chödron
