Who is Green Tara?

Green Tara, known in Tibetan as Drolma or Sgrol-ma meaning "She Who Liberates," is Buddhism's most beloved female bodhisattva. Born from Avalokiteshvara's compassionate tears, she embodies swift action and active compassion, offering immediate protection from the eight fears and obstacles on the spiritual path.

Iconographic Features and Posture

Green Tara sits in the graceful lalitasana posture with her right leg extended, symbolizing readiness to spring into action to aid those who call upon her. Her serene face, with gently closed eyes and peaceful smile, expresses boundless compassion. Her right hand extends in the varada mudra (wish-granting gesture), while her left hand holds a blue utpala flower at her heart, representing purity and spiritual unfoldment. Both hands form the vitarka mudra with thumb and index finger, symbolizing the teaching of dharma.

Sacred Symbolism and Meaning

The extended right foot represents her eagerness to enter the world of suffering to help beings. The lotus flowers blooming beside her shoulders signify spiritual awakening rising above worldly concerns. Her green color embodies active compassion, youthful vigor, and the accomplishment of enlightened activities.

Sanskrit and Buddhist Wisdom

Tara personifies "Prajna-Paramita"—the perfection of wisdom that ferries beings across the ocean of samsara. Her practice cultivates fearlessness, swift protection, and the courage to overcome life's challenges through compassionate action.

Sacred Mantra

“Om Tare Tuttare Ture Soha”

This potent mantra invokes Green Tara's swift protection and blessings, meaning "homage to Tara who liberates from suffering and grants spiritual and worldly attainments."
