The successful bidder for this item will receive this Guru Rinpoche Medicine Buddha Orgyen Menlha thangka from Namse Bangdzo Bookstore. 

Ogyen Menlha is the Buddha of wisdom, longevity, and medicine; the combined essence of all the Buddhas. Therefore, "whosoever with great conviction and faith recites his prayer will be freed from the miseries brought on by diseases, evil spirits in this life." The prayer:

This illusory heap of a body, which, like others, I possess

If it falls sick, so be it! In sickness I'll rejoice!

For it will exhaust my negative karma from the past.

And, after all, many forms of Dharma practice

Are for the sake of purifying the two obscurations.
