Product Description
The Medicine Buddha Locket Thangka is a profound spiritual amulet dedicated to Bhaishajyaguru, the Master of Healing. Revered across Buddhist traditions, this deity is invoked not only for curing physical ailments and pain but, more importantly, for eliminating the root cause of all suffering: the three poisons of desire, hatred, and ignorance.
Enclosed within a traditional Ghau (portable shrine) casing, this hand-painted miniature Thangka allows you to carry the pure, restorative energy of the Medicine Buddha everywhere you go. His vibrant blue color symbolizes the flawless quality of his medicine and the immutability of his enlightened mind.
Sacred Symbolism in Detail
The Lapis Lazuli light of the Medicine Buddha (as depicted in his blue body) is central to his power. The iconography in your locket carries specific, potent meaning:
-
Blue Skin (Lapis Lazuli Light): Represents the Supreme Medicine that cures all illness and purifies the karma that causes sickness.
-
Right Hand (Resting on Knee): The gesture of granting wishes ($Varada Mudra$) and supreme generosity, offering blessings to all sentient beings.
-
Left Hand (Holding a Bowl): Contains a bowl of healing nectar and medicinal herbs (often $Myrobalan$), symbolizing his ability to provide the ultimate remedy for the body and mind.
-
Seated Posture: Demonstrates his profound meditative concentration and perfect, unwavering compassion.

CONSECRATION OF PRODUCT
For requests for consecrations/blessings, we can take the thangka to monasteries or Rinpoches from the nearby Boudha Stupa. We kindly ask you to offer $50 for the monasteries for blessings/consecration services.
Natural Colors in Thangka
All the colors used in the thankgas are made from natural minerals. Ground into pigments, they carry the essence of the earth. Unlike artificial colors, these natural tones shine with honesty, adding depth, life, and spiritual meaning to each canvas.
Ghau Locket Thangka
A Ghau Thangka is a hand-painted, miniature Nepalese Buddhist scroll that is housed in an elaborate metal shrine. It is sometimes spelled Gau or Ghau. The living energy of enlightened deities, including Green Tara, Medicine Buddha, Mahakala, and Guru Rinpoche, is carried by this portable altar, which can be worn as a pendant or held near the heart. In contrast to regular jewellery, each Ghau Thangka is consecrated through ancient rabné (blessing) rituals by a qualified lama. The end effect is a talisman that, wherever you go, exudes healing, protection, and spiritual strength.
