Medicine Buddha (Sanskrit: Bhaishajyaguru. Tibetan: sang gye men la. English: the Buddha, Guru of Medicine).Above Suryabhaskara is the mother of wisdom Prajnaparamita with four hands, orange, seated, flanked by two standing bodhisattvas. To the other side above Chandrabhaskara is the buddha Shakyamuni flanked by two standing bodhisattvas. Vertically along each side are three buddhas each flanked by two bodhisattvas. These six are referred to as the brothers of Vaidurya Prabha and all together they are known as the 'Seven Buddhas of Medicine.'Along side the lion throne are the Four Direction Guardians, Vaishravana, etc. Below that are two horizontal rows of figures. The upper row contains the ten Gods of the Directions each riding on a different animal mount. At the far right side are two additional figures mounted on chariots. The 12 Yaksha Generals specific to the Sutra of Medicine Buddha comprise the lower row.At the top are rows of smaller buddhas, all in the same appearance, representing the set of 53 Buddhas along with the Seven Lord Buddhas of the Past with one extra making a total of 61 buddhas. The form and practice of Medicine Buddha is derived from the Bhaishajyaguru Sutra taught by Lord Shakyamuni. In the Vajrayana Tradition this sutra is classified as a Kriya Tantra. Common to all schools of Tibetan Buddhism Medicine Buddha is particularly important to the Tibetan medical traditions.Jeff Watt 7-98Seven Medicine Buddhas & Prajnaparamita:Sixteen Bodhisattvas: 11 (1).
