Realm of the Medicine Buddha - Added
The Realm of the Medicine Buddha depicted as the first painting of the Blue Beryl set of compositions has been added as a separate gallery of images on the HAR website.
The scene has the Medicine Buddha at the center of a palace in the middle of a medicinal plant garden. Immediately surrounding the Buddha are Indian gods, rishis and Buddhist monks, including Arya Nagarjuna. These various figures are the legendary and human characters involved with the development and propagation of Indian Aurveda medicine in the 1st millennium of the common era. In the 2nd millennium this transformed again into Tibetan medicine.
