It is noteworthy that these are no fewer than 15 standing gilt bronze Bhaisajya - guru Buddha statues of strikingly similar shapes from the 7th centry Silla. They may be regarded to form a unique group by themselves. Their common features include child-like facial expression, rather rounded body contours and simplified robe folds. In addition to these characteristics which are more or less common on all 7th century Buddhist statues, the these statues have robes covering the left shoulder, taking the tribhanger posture while the majority of the 7th century Buddhist statues have robes covering both shoulders and standing erect, holding cint -mani in the right hand. The articles under the headings off Milonchoisa (密本? 邪) in the Vol. of Samgukyusa (三國遣事) contains an important historical account as to why this type of Bhaisaiyguru Buddhas had been made. This historical account, study of the style of the 15 statues, and the fact their provenances are mostly in Ky ngsangbuk-do province, lead us to believe that these 15 statues had been made mostly in Silla in the lent half of the 7th century A.D. and they were fashionable in the period. Examples of Chinese Buddhist statues with the similar features although limited in number include one in the grotto of Hsiang-t'ang Shan Mountain, China dating from Northern Ch'i, and another dated by inscription to ninth year of chinbo (天保 9年, 558 A.D.) whose rubbing is in the collection of Mr. Sickman, Kansas City. (Kansas, U.S.A.) The two Chinese figures are generally believed to be related to Buddhist statues of south India or such areas under south Indian influence as Ceylon or Southeast Asia. It, therefore, follows that this kind of unique style of Bhaisaiyaguru Buddhas of Silla period had south Indian or Ceylon origin. And also the model (statue) of these Bhaisajyaguru Buddha statues are supposed to be Buddha statues that introduced from India to Korea by way of Southeast Asia by sea.
