Rinpoche wrote a very short but beautiful teaching on the practice of Medicine Buddha, which includes the visualization: Medicine Buddha Practice for Corona Virus from Khenpo Karten Rinpoche.
Additionally we typically recite a short Buddha Amitabha (the Buddha of Infinite Light) mantra: Om Ami Dewa Hri. Here is the text for Buddha Amitabha: The Recitation for Accomplishment of Sukhavati from the Sky Dharma Mind Terma.
Also, we will practice honoring Buddha Shakyamuni, as part of Saga Dawa (Saga Dawa Duchen Full Moon day is June 11th) . We will use the text written by by Mipham Rinpoche called “Treasury of Blessings.”
