AbstractOne of the most common images used to describe the Buddha is that he is the supreme physician, the great healer who cures the ultimate disease, which is transmigratory existence. The image of a great religious leader as a healer was not uniquely Buddhist. But it is also not unproblematic. Attitudes towards doctors varied greatly in early India and were often strikingly negative. This paper explores the range of attitudes towards physicians in story literature and philosophical texts.

L’une des images les plus couramment employées pour décrire le Buddha est celle du médecin suprême, du grand thérapeute qui guérit de la principale maladie, la transmigration existentielle. La représentation du meneur religieux comme étant un thérapeute ne fut pas exclusivement bouddhique. Elle ne va pas non plus sans problème. Les attitudes envers les médecins étaient d’une grande variété dans l’Inde ancienne; elle furent souvent singulièrement négatives. Cet article explore une partie de l’éventail des sentiments envers les médecins dans la littérature narrative et les ouvrages philosophiques.
