     I wasnt really sure where to respond to Brendas request for more english practices... so i decided under internal for now unless someone thinks it will be more suiting for others to read as well...

       This is the Medicine Buddha Yoga
(i applogise for any errors or changes that may be made to this later, due to a missing page)

    it is very similar to both Vajrasattva and Guru Yoga... also its very important to also read (or recite) the Sutra of the Master of Healing... and as with all Tantric Practices, recieve the proper empowerment first... also reciting of the Lord of Healing (Medicine Buddha) heart mantra 100,000+ times
http://www.tbsn.org/english/library/sutras/mstheal.html

    Bring palms together and recite:
               
               Om mani padme hum

   1. Recite Purification Mantras & Local Earth Deity guard
   2. Recite the Invocation Mantra
        We call upon the Root Guru, Grand Master Lian Shen
        Namo Padmakumara
        Namo Double Lotus Pond 18 Padmakumaras
        Namo Eastern Medicine Buddha
        Namo Western Amitabha Buddha
        Namo Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva
        Namo Western Gold Mother of the Primordial Pond
        Namo Maha Cundi Bodhisattva
        Namo Padmasambhava
        Namo Yellow Jambhala
        Namo Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva
        Namo Ucchisma
        Namo Acala
        Namo Skanda the Revered Dharma Protector
        Namo the Jia Lan Bodhisattva
        Namo all Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Protectors of
          ChinYin School
        All Buddhas of the Ten Directions the three periods
        All Bodhisattvas and Mahasattvas

   3. The Great Homage with Visualization
   4. The Great Mandala Offerings
   5. Fourfold Refuge
   6. Armor Protection
   7. Sutra (recite/read)
   8. Medicine Buddha Mudra with Visualization
      Visualization:
         An ocean with a placid, mirror-like surface. Above is a clear cloudless sky. A blue full moon disk rises above the horizon. Inside this moon disk is the HUM seed syllable radiating blue light.
          The seed syllable inside the moon disk begins to spin, transforming into the Lord of Healing, sitting on a lotus. His body radiates blue bright light, hands holding the Samadhi sign and a bowl filled with healing nectar. Visualize the heart chakra of the Lord of Healing radiating bright blue light entering your body through the crown chakra. Our body becomes as pure as lapis lazuli and all bad karma and illnesses are removed and cured.
         At this time, our heart chakra emits a ray of bright blue light which comes into union with the blue light from the heart chakra of Lord of Healing. Instantaneously, we become the Lord of Healing ourselves.
        To cure illnesses, visualize in front of the shrine or the patient, bright blue light from the bowl of the Lord of Healing, shining down on to the medication, blessed water, food or clothing of the person before being administered to them.
        Doug mentioned to me that you can also visualize blue light or "blue smoke light" flowing out of the bowl of the Lord of Healing and flowing over a photo of a sick person or the actual sick person...
     
   10. Recite the heart mantra of the Lord of Healing: x108
   11. Enter into Samadhi
          (Nine Cycle Breathing exercise, coming into union with the Great Void and breath counting meditation)
   12. Recite 8 Personal Deity Heart Mantras:
   13. Amitabha Homage (x3)
     Homage to the 36 trillion, 119 thousand and 500 Amitabha
   14. Recite Dedication:
   15. Recite the Hundred Syllable Mantra (x3)
   16. The Great Homage with Visualization
   17. Completion Mantra (x3)

    This is the practice sequence as i understand it... i know some english works of this yoga will be appearing soon so if this version varies from the one that appears later, the later should be the procedure followed, making this one in error... but hopefully that wont be the case...

       om mani padme hum
