The Medicine Buddha is a significant figure in Buddhist teachings known for his ability to heal and his compassionate nature.

These Pancha Dhyani Buddha figures are often arranged in a circle around the Medicine Buddha highlighting the interconnectedness and unity of all things. Flanking the Medicine Buddha are two other important figures in Buddhist tradition: Vairochana and Shakyamuni Buddha.
