The Medicine Buddha -Bhaisajyaguru T-Shirt

The Healer of all Sufferings. Om bhaisajye bhaisajye mahābhaisajya-samudgate svāhā. -Empowering You to Heal. This mantra could roughly be translated as “Hail! Appear, O Healer, O Healer, O Great Healer, O King of Healing!” Tibetan doctors rely on Medicine Buddha for their healing. Regular practice with the Medicine Buddha also empowers one with powers to heal others. In China and Japan, Medicine Buddha is a refuge in times of illness. Around the world, literally millions call out the name or mantra of Bhaisajyaguru (भैषज्यगुरु). It is even written in the sutras that if you speak the name of the Medicine Buddha in the ears of a dying animal or human they will be ensured good rebirth regardless of their past karma. No wonder the Blue Lapis Lazuli Medicine Buddha is so popular. Aside from visualizing and mantra recitation, a common healing practice is to chant 108 of Medicine Buddha’s mantras over a glass of water. The chanter, preferably one who has chanted the mantra in regular practice, then blows on the water and offers it to a sick person. The empowered water has healing properties. The patient can also be requested to speak the name of the Buddha 108 times, or chant the mantra, or read the sutras, or just to gaze up on a loving the Medicine Buddha image. Many miraculous cures have been attributed to the Medicine Buddha.
