The Medicine Buddha (Sanskrit: Bhaisajyagura) represents the healing aspect of the historical Buddha, Shakyamuni.

Its visualization color is blue, like lapis lazuli.

In his right hand he holds a branch of the Myrobalan plant, in his left hand a bowl filled with medicinal nectar.

Medicine Buddha represents the overcoming of the three "poisons": attachment, hatred and ignorance.

These negative mental states lead to disturbances in the body's energies due to wind, bile, and phlegm, resulting in the appearance of physical and mental symptoms—and eventually disease.

By meditating on the virtues of Medicine Buddha (through the recitation and visualization of mantras), the inner regions become balanced and bring a positive effect on the body and mind.
