Who Is Green Tara?

Green Tara, known as Shyama Tara, is the female bodhisattva of compassionate action. Born from Avalokiteshvara's tears of compassion for suffering beings, she vowed to manifest in female form throughout all lifetimes. As the "Mother of Liberation," she swiftly responds to prayers, removing obstacles and protecting devotees from fear.

Sacred Posture and Iconographic Details

Green Tara sits in the posture of royal ease, her right leg extended in readiness to spring into action—symbolizing her immediate response to suffering. Her right hand displays the varada mudra (gesture of supreme generosity), while her left hand holds a blue utpala flower near her heart, representing purity and spiritual unfolding. Her compassionate eyes gaze downward, watching over all beings. The lotus blossoms flanking her shoulders represent her transcendence over worldly suffering.

Sacred Symbolism and Meaning

Green Tara's verdant color symbolizes active enlightened energy, growth, and life force. Her youthful appearance embodies eternal compassion, while her ornate jewelry represents the wealth of spiritual accomplishment. She offers protection from eight fears: lions (pride), elephants (delusion), fire (anger), snakes (jealousy), thieves (fanaticism), imprisonment (avarice), floods (desire), and demons (doubt).

Sanskrit and Buddhist Wisdom

Tara embodies Karuna (compassion) and Prajnaparamita (perfection of wisdom), demonstrating that true liberation requires both swift action and profound understanding to benefit all sentient beings.

Sacred Mantra
