When the world is pervaded by problems and dangers due to uncontrolled minds and inappropriate actions, one of the most important practices is that of Medicine Buddha.
Medicine Buddha is a Buddha Doctor whose function is to release living beings from outer and inner sickness by bestowing blessings upon them. By relying upon him sincerely we can be cured of heavy physical and mental disease and find release from the internal pain of the three poisons: attachment, anger and ignorance. We will also receive protection from many other dangers and obstacles.
On Saturday there will be the opportunity to receive the empowerment of Medicine Buddha which helps us to make a special connection with this Buddha Doctor and receive a special power of body speech and mind which we can use to help others. In the afternoon there will be practical teachings on how we can heal the mind through relying upon him.
On Sunday there will be a commentary to the sadhana practice of Medicine Buddha and an opportunity to be guided through this practice which includes meditation, visualization and recitation.
