The healing teacher is one of the most popular forms of the Buddha and is often known as the Medicine Buddha. While still in bodhisattva, he is said to have made twelve vows, some concerning the healing of the sick. Consequently, as a Buddha he has the specific task of dispensing spiritual medicine to devotees. He is believed to have the power to heal physical ailments also.
The medicine Buddha is holding a small medicine jar that represents the healing powers in one hand and a flowering lotus in the other.
