Medicine Buddha
Medicine Buddha Prayers
Sundays, 10:00–11:00 Uhr
3. Oktober / 5. Dezember 2021
Experience the healing power of Medicine Buddha. According to Buddhist teachings, all illnesses and suffering, both mental and physical, are caused by our delusions such as anger, attachment and ignorance. We experience them as deeply rooted spiritual habits, and it seems difficult to let them go. Medicine Buddha is a Buddha doctor whose function is to free living beings from external and internal illness by granting them powerful blessings. Through our connection with Medicine Buddha, we can experience the pure nature of our mind and heal ourselves from these internal diseases permanently.
