Why the name "Arura"?
In Tibetan images of the Medicine Buddha (Sangye Menla) the left hand typically holds a blooming arura or myrobalan plant.
Tibetan medicine recognizes three basic types of illness, the root causes of which are the conflicting emotions; passion, aggression, and ignorance. Myrobalan is the only herb in the Tibetan pharmacopoeia that can aid in healing each of these three types of diseases.
