unbiased compassion

i awoke this morning

with a knowing

to investigate

the Medicine Buddha

and his mantra

Tayata
Om Bekandze Bekandze
Maha Bekandze
Radza Samudgate Soha

the mantra means: 

may the many sentient beings
who are sick,
quickly be freed from sickness.
and may all the sicknesses of beings
never arise again.

visualize Medicine Buddha on the crown of your head

or in front of you at forehead level

if you are doing this for someone else

visualize Medicine Buddha above their heads
