Puja to the Medicine Buddha

February 8, 2025 @ 2:00 pm 4:00 pm

Led by Srivandana, this afternoon we shall be sharing a puja devoted to The Medicine Buddha, Bhaishajyaraja, Lapis Lazuli Radiance Tathagata.

During the puja we will have the opportunity to offer the names of those close to us who need healing, those in our wider Sangha and then on out into this beautiful yet suffering world.

“Then the Buddha told Ananda: Ananda, a human incarnation is difficult to obtain.  It is also difficult to obtain faith in the Three Jewels, and to revere, honour and respect them.   It is even more difficult to be granted the opportunity to hear the name of the Lord Master of Healing, the Lapis Lazuli Radiance Tathagata.  Ananda, if I were to describe the boundless bodhisattva practices, the limitless excellent and clever means, the infinitely vast great vows of that Master of Healing, the Lapis Lazuli Radiance Tathagata – if I were to describe these for an aeon or even longer, that period would soon be exhausted.  The practices, vows, and excellent means of that Buddha are inexhaustible.”

Please wear something blue.
