 The  present  painting  depicts  Bhaisajyaguru,  the  Medicine  Buddha,  seated
 in  a  palace  in  the  pure  land  of  Vaiduryanirbhasa.  He  clutches  the  stem
 of  an  aruna  fruit  in  his  right  hand,  and  supports  a  medicine  bowl  in  his
 left.  Within  the  grounds  of  the  palace,  he  is  surrounded  by  a  multitude  of
 buddhas and devotees gathered to hear their teachings. Outside the palace
 grounds, numerous monks and siddhas meditate in their cave and mountain
 hermitages.  The  triangular-form  mountains  and  Chinese-style  landscape
 indicate the present painting was likely painted in the eastern regions of Tibet.
