The blue 'Medicine Buddha' - Healer


The MEDICINE BUDDHA: Buddhism's Forgotten Healer | Bhaisajyaguru
(Buddha's Wisdom) March 4th, 2026: #MedicineBuddha #Buddhism #BuddhistHealing šŸ” THE MEDICINE BUDDHA HEALS WITHOUT CURING — AND HERE'S WHY:

The Medicine Buddha (BhaisajyaGuru) is one of the most fascinating figures in Mahāyāna Buddhism: a blue-skinned buddha associated with healing, compassion, and the Pure Land of Lapis Lazuli (a beautiful blue Afghan gemstone).
 
But if Buddhism teaches impermanence, non-self (anattā), and detachment from the body, why does it include a buddha devoted to curing illness?

This video explores the history, philosophy, and psychological depth behind Bhaiį¹£ajyaguru...and what Buddhist healing really means.

This is the story of how Buddhism's "doctor who prescribes enlightenment" challenges everything we think we know about healing, suffering, and what it means to be broken.

šŸ“æ DISCOVER:
  • Why Medicine Buddha's 12 vows made him Buddhism's most controversial figure
  • How 8th-century Buddhist monasteries became the world's first integrated healthcare systems
  • The blind Chinese Buddhist monk who taught healing despite losing his sight
  • Why Tibetan, Japanese, and Chinese Buddhists practice Medicine Buddha in completely different ways
  • What modern science reveals about meditation, stress, and the mind-body connection.
⏳ TIMESTAMPS:
  • 00:00 The blue-skinned god that shouldn't exist
  • 02:32 The twelve vows that changed Buddhism
  • 08:55 When temples became clinics
  • 14:55 The disease behind the disease
  • 21:22 Three Buddhas, one Truth
  • 30:51 The cure that isn't

Reptilian Dragon King Temple: Neak Pean

.
An artificial reservoir constructed by Nagas?
(PraveenMohan) NOT BUILT FOR (OR BY) HUMANS: Impossible Buddhist-Hindu temple found in Cambodia [seems to have been constructed by and for nagas, "reptilian humanoids," "lizard people," extraterrestrial dragons, serpents, snakes hybridized with humans. It is called Neak Pean or "Entwined Nagas."

The Herbal Island (Garden) Hospital
We came from Draco and run this planet from below. Don't believe it? Just ask David Icke.
.
Garden hospital marked by caduceus?
Neak Pean (or Neak Poan) [2] (Khmer įž”្įžšាįžŸាįž‘įž“ាįž‚įž–័įž“្įž’, "the Entwined Serpents") at Angkor, Cambodia, is an artificial island (ancient hospital and plant pharmacy) and reservoir.

It is a Mahayana Buddhist temple on a circular island in Jayatataka Baray, which was associated with Preah Khan Temple, said to have been built during the reign of King Jayavarman VII [3]: 389. It is the "Mebon" of the Preah Khan baray (the "Jayatataka" of the inscription) [4].
Etymology
Caduceus: two entwined (winged) serpents are the Western symbol of "medicine"
.
The Garden had a medicinal pond for plants?
Some historians believe that Neak Pean represents Anavatapta [5]: 174 , a mythical lake in the Himalayas whose waters are thought to cure all illnesses [6]: 124–125 [7].

The name is derived from the sculptures of snakes (nāgas, reptilians, dragons, serpents) running around the base of the temple structure, neak being the Khmer translation of the Sanskrit word naga.

"They are Nanda and Upa-Nanda, two nagas traditionally associated with Lake Anavatapta" [8]. More
Why would a watery snake live in garden?

Jimmy Dore Show: Israel, medicine, vax



Making the Cut: How to Heal Modern Medicine
Dr. Aaron Kheriaty, M.D.
Author Dr. Aaron Kheriaty has 4.6 out of 5 stars (with 28 reviews). There is a cure for medicine’s ills, but it’s going to hurt. Effective treatment, as every doctor knows, begins with accurate diagnosis.

Making the Cut is about what’s going on in the house of medicine. Medicine got sick.
  • One in three people now distrust the healthcare system.
  • Following the pandemic, two-thirds of Americans doubt medical scientists will act in the best interest of the public.
  • We are grappling with an epidemic of chronic illness—heart disease, cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, stroke, and chronic lung and kidney disease—affecting six in ten Americans, which medicine seems powerless to fix.
The overall life expectancy of Americans has declined for the first time since the Great Depression. Not only are trust levels tanking,
  • the number of doctors is dropping dramatically.
  • Physicians are quitting in droves.
  • One in five doctors will leave medicine in the next two years.
  • One in three will reduce their hours.
A doctor, we assume, wounds in order to heal. “You’re going to feel a sharp pain!” she says, before making the cut. Today, though, all too often the doctor wounds without healing. Why?

In Making the Cut, Dr. Kheriaty, one of the country's leading public intellectuals and preeminent bioethicists, reveals what medicine gave him—and what it sometimes took from him.

This book is about how he grew from an overconfident pre-med to an ambivalent medical student to a capable physician who had fallen in love with medicine—even if his lover has turned into a prostitute of late.

While presenting a damning diagnosis of contemporary medicine, Making the Cut also applies the wounding scalpel in order to heal it. More

šŸ³️‍🌈 Trump mandates binary (LGBTQI+)


Rense.com conflates Judaism and transgenderism
What is a "binary"? It is a choice between two options, like computer code, 1 or 0. In other contexts, it is a black and white way of thinking. Even though there may be three options, we sometimes like two simplify the world into just two or even just one -- black or white, this or that, yay or nay. A gender binary is the idea that humans are born as either male or female.



Lost in Transnation (Dr. Grossman)
Of course, there is "other," but as humans we often find that messy. It may be rare, but there is a third gender, a pandaka in Buddhist terms, and that can be further divided. Many today, because of past karma or xenoestrogenic compounds and other disruptive chemicals in the environment (thanks to Monsanto and Dow Chemical, Inc. and CIA experiments), feel other than or between genders and are or want to be trans (transitioning or transsexuals, crossdressers or transvestites).

Gender is not only a feeling (though that seems to be the only thing anyone goes on, conflating orientation, gender, sex, biology, and emotions). There is a biological reason for assignment into one category or another. But that assignment is constructed, as many things are. So some argue for more choices, more genders sometimes to the point of ridiculousness. Now there's a slap back, and Trump has taken advantage of it, just as he does the issues of race, misogyny, economy, implicit bias, and sexism. He's a con man, and that's what con men do. But the important thing is that his false words represent something very real in the society. There really are things happening that people are not happy with, gender things being shoved down our throats. If he wants to lead a popular revolt against them, it can come as no surprise that it's going to work.

Follow up: California woman accuses hospital of requiring her to take 3 unwanted vaccines
(FOX 11 Los Angeles) Sept. 24, 2024: Alexis Lorenze, the 23-year-old woman who previously went viral for showing her adverse reaction to toxins (excipient and intended ingredients) forced on her after she accused the hospital of requiring vaccines, shared new photos of her life-threatening reaction. More: foxla.com/news/california...

COMMENTARY

This pre-pandemic doc warned us
See Vaxxed and Plandemic for more information on vaccine injury. Jimmy Dore (jimmydore.com) is also a vaccine injured person who awoke to what the vaccination industry and Big Pharma were doing as well as the doctors who got in big trouble for speaking out, for example Dr. Judy Mikovits, MD.

For profit doctors do best to go along to get along even as patients die prematurely or are irrevocably injured. Meanwhile. through hastily passed legislation, pharmaceutical companies are made immune to prosecution for any consequences from use of their vaccine preparations.

This is the great advantage of securing "emergency use authorizations," which is not possible if there is any other viable treatment. There are other viable treatments, such as the very safe and famous human drug ivermectin, but it cannot be acknowledged by doctors because that will ruin the pharmaceutical companies' immunity because EUA cannot legally be granted. Research it.

Israeli war crimes: bulldozing human beings

Pfc. Sandoval, Sheldon S., Ashley Wells (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Israel bulldozed (crushing many innocent civilians) and shelled Kamal Adwan, the only hospital in northern Gaza
(Al Jazeera English) Al Jazeera is funded in whole or in part by the Qatari government. Dec. 16, 2023: Days of intensive Israeli terrorist bombardment massacring civilians and noncombatants in war crimes of "collective punishment," have left the Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza barely functional. It was the only working hospital in the North of Gaza…and one of only eleven still open in the entire Israeli-occupied territory. (Though illegal Israeli settlements were famously removed, the Israeli military never left but remained as a brutal occupying force). Al Jazeera's Tareq Abou Azzoum reports from Rafah. #AlJazeeraEnglish #AlJazeeraLiveNews #AlJazeera


Disturbing video: Israeli terrorists (IDF) bulldoze people at Kamal Adwan Hospital, burying dozens alive
(The Free Press Journal) Dec. 17, 2023: Israeli troopers stormed Kamal Adwan Hospital in North Gaza, bulldozing parts of it and brutally crushing inhabited tents outside. Dozens of human beings, displaced individuals, along with sick and wounded civilian Gaza patients injured by Israel's military, were purposely and tragically buried alive. Israel's occupation bulldozers also trampled the tents of displaced people in the hospital yard, probably by accident because Israel would never commit a war crime or atrocity on purpose, right? They're not that crazy.

Israel LIES: It built Al-Shifa Hospital bunker

Amy Goodman, Democracy Now, 11/28/23; Sheldon S., Pfc. Sandoval (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Jeremy Scahill: Israel's "LETHAL LIE" about Al-Shifa Hospital as Hamas base co-signed by Biden
(Democracy Now!) Nov. 28, 2023: Latest Shows Support work: https://democracynow.org/give The Intercept's Jeremy Scahill deconstructs Israel's narrative around Gaza's Al-Shifa Hospital, including unsubstantiated allegations Hamas uses tunnels under the hospital as its command center — tunnels (a bunker) that Israel itself built then lied about.

(Joe Rogan) Abby Martin exposes Israel's apartheid, torture, genocide

"We were told that this was like a Hamas Pentagon," says Scahill, who describes how the Israeli military's own evidence disproves its allegations that the hospital was dangerous enough to justify its siege and bombardment.

The World Health Organization (WHO) says Al-Shifa, Gaza's largest hospital, "is no longer functioning."

The Israeli disinformation campaign against it was a "lethal lie," says Scahill.

DN! also discusses the status of Palestinian prisoners who are now candidates for release from Israel [many having been held for no crime, not charged, yet indefinitely "detained" as hostages, captives, or simply as victims to torture] through Hamas's ongoing detainee exchange.

BBC: Israel is lying, manipulating media

Novara Media, 11/18/23; Sheldon S., Ashley Wells, Pfc. Sandoval (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Now even the BBC is seeing through Israel’s lies and propaganda campaign to justify its genocidal invasion and killing of noncombatant civilians
(Novara Media) Nov. 18, 2023: Novara Live broadcasts every weekday from 6:00 pm on YouTube and Twitch. Episodes of Downstream are released Sundays at 6:00 pm on YouTube.

United Nations Rep. Nada Tarbush: "Never again is NOW," genocidal Israel
COMMENTARY
We're going to call 'em terrorists and kill 'em all
First Channel 4 (UK public TV) saw holes in Israel's many deceptive stories, press releases, and lies. Now even the very pro-Israel bias of the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) can't help but seeing the holes in militant Israel Defense Forces' ham-handed video presentation of "evidence" of tunnels and Al-Shifa Hospital being used as "Hamas Central Command."

I'm not "lying." I'm just "following orders."
These are pathetic lies laughed at by the rest of the world, particularly the Arabic speaking Middle East, but swallowed whole by the only audience that matters, us, the U.S., the funders of Israel's atrocities. Who is falling for Col. Klunk aka "John Con" man (Lt. Col. Johnathan Conricus)?

He's the clunky Jewish voice of Israel's professional military, the IDF's special [propaganda, psyops] forces, the unblinking speaker, a kind of gentle-voiced monster, a Herman Munster, a pockmarked face, a blemished caricature of a serious, unbiased voice of reason.

He's just showing and telling what he is told to show and tell -- psyops, propaganda, lies -- even as it changes on what the IDF claims is continuous video (one shot with no edits) footage. It's faked and therefore fake.

Israel commits WAR CRIMES: UN official


UN Palestine expert shuts down foolish journalist
(Novara Media) Nov. 16, 2023: Domination, crime against humanity, by definition, not a trope. Novara Live broadcasts every weekday from 6:00 pm on YouTube and Twitch. Episodes of Downstream are released Sundays at 6:00 pm on YouTube.

The U.N. Special Rapporteur to the Occupied Palestinian Territory Francesca Albanese declared this week that Israel does not, under international law, have a right to claim "self-defense" in its attacks against Hamas (and the Al-Qassam Brigades).

In fact, under international law, Israel is committing "war crimes."

You're an antisemite. We're the most moral army!
Albanese's declarations came Tuesday (11/15/23) during an address to the National Press Club of Australia, when she deemed Israel's excuse that it was acting in "self-defense" non-existent under international law.

She took aim at the belligerent state for its "unrelenting bombardment of Gaza" [and Palestinian civilians that Israel says are "human shields" and therefore legal "collateral damage" when, in fact, they are non-state actors, an occupied population, and the legal responsibility of the occupying state actor, Israel] and other illegal actions.

Why?
Okay, maybe a little. U.S. said it was okay.
Israel, according to Albanese, cannot claim a "right to self-defense" because it is not under threat from another state.

"Israel cannot claim the right of self-defense against a threat that emanates from a territory it occupies, from a territory that is under [Israel's] belligerent occupation," Special Rapporteur Albanese said from the event in Canberra, Australia.


"What Israel was allowed to do was to act to establish law and order, to repel the attack, neutralize whomever was carrying out the attacks, and then proceed with law-and-order measures...not waging a war," she added. More

"Genocide"? Schmenicide!

British columnist Owen Jones: Israel is committing genocide, wiping Gaza off the map
(Middle East Eye) Nov. 16, 2023: “15,000 [Palestinian] people have now been killed [by Israeli Jews] in Gaza. One in every 200 people in Gaza have now been killed. If you were to adjust for the population in Ukraine, that would be 300,000 Ukrainian civilians.”

British newspaper columnist Owen Jones debated Piers Morgan on his show on Wednesday, calling out Morgan for describing Russia’s actions in Ukraine as a genocide while refusing to label Israel’s attacks on Gaza as genocide.
