Who is Green Tara?

Green Tara (Tibetan: Jetsün Dölma) stands as Buddhism's most beloved female deity, embodying swift compassionate action and protection from all fears. Known as the "Mother of Liberation," she responds immediately to prayers, offering refuge from dangers while guiding practitioners toward enlightenment.

Divine Iconography: Posture of Ready Compassion

Green Tara sits in lalitasana (royal ease posture) with her right leg extended, symbolizing readiness to leap into action to aid sentient beings. Her serene face, painted in vibrant emerald green, features compassionate eyes gazing downward. The right hand extends in varada mudra (wish-granting gesture), offering blessings while holding a blue lotus stem. Her left hand performs vitarka mudra on her heart, also holding a lotus flower. The elaborate crown, adorned with precious gemstones, contains miniature deity figures.

Sacred Symbolism and Meaning

This statue embodies active compassion in feminine form. Green Tara's color represents enlightened activity and life-giving energy, while her posture signifies constant availability to assist practitioners. The lotus flowers represent the transcendence of worldly suffering.

Sanskrit and Buddhist Wisdom

The Tara Tantra describes her as born from Avalokiteshvara's tears of compassion, vowing to liberate all beings in female form. She embodies "prajna"—transcendent wisdom—united with compassionate skillful means.

Sacred Mantra
