Who is Green Tara?

Green Tara, known as the "Mother of Liberation," is one of Buddhism's most beloved female deities. Revered across Tibetan and Nepalese traditions, she embodies swift compassion and active protection. As the female Buddha of enlightened activity, Green Tara responds immediately to the prayers of devotees, offering liberation from suffering and guiding souls toward spiritual awakening.

Divine Features and Sacred Posture

This magnificent statue captures Green Tara in her classic lalitasana pose—right leg extended in readiness to rise and assist, left leg folded in meditation. Her serene face features meticulously painted eyes that radiate boundless compassion, seeming to follow devotees with maternal warmth. Her right hand forms the varada mudra (gesture of supreme giving), while her left hand holds a lotus stem, symbolizing purity rising from worldly mud. Each detail, from her ornate crown to her graceful fingers, reflects masterful Nepalese craftsmanship.

Sacred Symbolism and Meaning

Green Tara represents the unity of wisdom and compassionate action. Her green complexion symbolizes vigorous, life-giving energy and connection to nature. The extended leg signifies her perpetual readiness to step into the world and alleviate suffering, while her lotus represents spiritual unfoldment despite adversity.

Sanskrit and Buddhist Wisdom

In Sanskrit, Tara means "she who ferries across," referring to her power to guide beings across the ocean of suffering to enlightenment's shore. Buddhist teachings describe her as born from Avalokiteshvara's tears of compassion for the world's pain.
