Noble One, you should think of yourself as someone who is sick,
Of the Dharma as the remedy,
Of the Buddha as a skillful doctor,
And of your diligent practice as the way to recovery.
The Medicine Buddha, or Bhaisajyaguru, is the Buddha of Healing. Meditating on the Medicine Buddha is considered to be a powerful method for increasing healing powers, allowing practitioners to alleviate their own sufferings as well as those of others. Through his boundless compassion and generosity, Bhaisajyaguru helps sincere seekers overcome physical illness and infirmity. But even more importantly, the Buddha is the skillful doctor who heals the great disease afflicting all sentient beings. By providing the Dharma as a profound antidote to the poisons of attachment, hatred, and ignorance, he lifts the veil of delusion and points the way to freedom.
The Buddha is depicted with his right hand extended downward, palm open, with thumb and index finger touching. This posture is known as Varada Mudra, or the gesture of granting wishes. This mudra symbolizes Bhaisajyaguru's kindness, charity, and compassion toward all beings. In the same hand, he lightly grasps a sprig of the Myrobalan plant, an important healing herb in Ayurvedic medicine. It is believed that this plant has the power not only to heal the body, but also to free one from the inner sicknesses of attachment, hatred and ignorance. His left hand lies in his lap with his palm upward in the gesture of meditation (Dhyana Mudra), representing the eradication of all sickness and suffering through the realization of absolute truth. In the same hand, he holds the traditional begging bowl of an ordained Buddhist monk. The bowl contains a sacred medicinal nectar that cures all ills, hindrances, and obstacles.
This exquisite statue is a charming representation of Bhaisajyaguru, the Medicine Buddha, meticulously crafted from copper alloy. The statue has undergone an oxidation process, resulting in a rich and sensuous finish that enhances its beauty and warmth.
Seated gracefully in meditation upon a lotus throne, the Buddha embodies the calm majesty of one who has achieved mastery over the self. His head is slightly inclined, and a subtle smile graces his lips, radiating a secret inner joy that inspires feelings of encouragement and happiness in those who behold him.
The robes of Bhaisajyaguru are finely hand-carved, showcasing intricate details that reflect the skill of the artisans. The overall effect of the oxidation finish adds a lively quality to the statue, inviting observers to linger and reflect. This sculpture was individually handcrafted in Patan, Nepal, by master artisans from the Shakya clan, who are renowned for their craftsmanship. These artisans are the modern custodians of a centuries-old tradition of creating sacred art for temples and monasteries, with fine metalworking techniques passed down through generations.
The statue not only serves as a stunning piece of art but also as a symbol of healing and compassion, embodying the teachings of the Buddha. It stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of Nepali craftsmanship and the profound beauty of Buddhist iconography.
