Home > Buddhist and Meditation Books > Buddhist Books > Tibetan Buddhism > Medicine Buddha Teachings by Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche The first half of this book presents the stages of the Medicine Buddha Sadhana, including the Medicine Buddha Mantra. Here Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche elucidates not only the details of the Medicine Buddha Practice, but also many of the basic principles of tantric theory and practice in general: the notion of deities and buddha realms, the principles of samayasattva and jnanasattva, the principles of emanating and gathering, and the use of offerings to cultivate qualities, to mention a few. In addition, Rinpoche describes and explains the mudras or ritual gestures employed in the sadhana and he also gives a particularly lucid description of the five wisdoms associated with the five Buddha families, describing them as five aspects of intrinsic awareness or as five aspects of the wisdom of a Buddha. For anyone engaged in any vajrayana practice, this teaching is very useful in understanding the foundations of tantric practice, and a garden of delights.

Included is the Medicine Buddha Sadhana along with two shorter versions and an excerpt of the Mahayana sutra detailing the twelve aspirations themselves. Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche is an eminent teacher of the Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism who travels and teaches extensively in Asia, Europe, and North America. He is currently tutor to H.
