    15:1620:57 Sadhana recitation

    Ratnasambhava Buddha, the glorious and auspicious Buddha of the South is characterized by his open hand of generosity, the mudra of giving. Jetsun Dragpa Gyaltsen, one of the five Sakya patriarchs, who lived 1147 to 1216, described the glorious Buddha of Generosity this way:

    “Arising in the southern direction is Ratnasambhava on a horse, lotus and sun throne; with a body yellow in colour the right hand is placed in the mudra of supreme generosity.”

    The mudra of generosity characterizes his vastly important wisdom. It is generosity and kindness and equality that defines the great Buddha closest to our earthly existence.

    He is the Buddha who grants wishes. As described by Konchog Ozer, from the Sadhana, which we recite at the end of this presentation:

    He has “a radiant body having the colour of blazing gold, one face, two hands, the right is in supreme generosity — fulfilling the wishes of beings.”
