According to the Mahayana Sutras, the bodhisattva Bhaiṣajyaguru made twelve great vows. He aspired that he be able to heal all beings with physical sufferings and mental illnesses. Moreover, he vowed to relieve them from the sufferings of hunger, thirst, and destitution. When through his practice he reached enlightenment, his supreme aspirations were fulfilled. Thus he became endowed with the power to help heal and dispel those sufferings. Therefore, for those suffering from various temporary or critical illnesses, the practice of Medicine Buddha is extremely relevant and beneficial.
