Description
 
The Healing Buddha
His aspiration is to pacify the suffering of all beings. His pure realm is Vaidurya Paradise in the East. He is accompanied by two bodhisattvas: Suryaprabha (Luminous Like the Sun) and Chandraprabha (Luminous Like the Moon). Since Akshobhya's color is blue, this attribute is also assigned to Medicine Buddha.
The Sutra of Seven Medicine Buddhas was translated into Tibetan by Jinamitra, Danashila.
