Embodying Compassion and Enlightenment

Discover the profound presence of Green Tara, an epitome of enlightened activity and compassion, captured in this exquisite brass statue. Handcrafted in India, this small yet powerful representation brings the serene energy of this beloved Bodhisattva into your sacred space or home. Green Tara, revered across Tibetan Buddhism and beyond, is known as the "Mother of Liberation," symbolizing swift action and the overcoming of fear and obstacles. Her emerald hue signifies her transformative and active nature, embodying the boundless energy of compassion that swiftly responds to the calls of all sentient beings. According to legend, Tara was born from a tear of compassion shed by Avalokiteshvara, the Bodhisattva of Compassion. Witnessing the suffering in the world, Avalokiteshvara wept, and from his tears, a lake formed. A lotus flower bloomed in the lake, and from it emerged Green Tara, radiating a gentle, emerald light. Her swiftness in responding to prayers is often likened to the speed of lightning, making her a powerful ally for those seeking solace and guidance.

Artistry and Devotion in Brass

This statue is meticulously crafted from brass, a material historically prized for its durability and ability to hold intricate detail. The artisans have poured their skill and devotion into every aspect of this piece, from the delicate ornamentation of her crown and jewelry to the serene expression on her face. The subtle patination of the brass lends an aged, authentic feel, hinting at the rich history and spiritual significance of the iconography. Her seated posture, the lotus throne, and the gesture of her hands all carry specific meanings within Buddhist tradition, inviting contemplation and mindfulness. The right hand, extended downwards in the gesture of granting boons (Varada mudra), symbolizes her readiness to bestow blessings and fulfill aspirations. Her left hand, held at the heart in the gesture of protection (Abhaya mudra), reassures devotees, dispelling fear and offering refuge.

A Beacon of Hope and Protection

The presence of Green Tara is believed to offer protection from the eight great fears – pride, ignorance, anger, envy, wrong views, greed, miserliness, and attachment. By invoking her energy, practitioners seek to overcome these inner impediments and cultivate inner peace. This statue serves as a tangible reminder of her compassionate watchfulness, encouraging the development of one's own inner strength and wisdom. Whether placed on an altar, a desk, or a bookshelf, this small brass statue of Green Tara acts as a powerful focal point for meditation, prayer, or simply quiet reflection, inviting her benevolent presence into your daily life and serving as a beautiful testament to the enduring traditions of Indian craftsmanship.

Exploring the Mystical Beauty and Symbolism of Tara: An Insightful Journey

Tara is an important and revered deity in Tibetan Buddhism who appears as a female Bodhisattva. Buddhist monks and followers meditate on the image or deity of Tara to develop some good qualities such as compassion and kindness. Tara is known as the mother of compassion or liberation and is considered the female aspect of Avalokiteshvara (who possesses the compassion of all Buddhas). She manifests in different forms such as Green Tara and White Tara. Green Tara is associated with fearlessness and White Tara, as radiant as the moon, is associated with good health. Tara also appears in red, blue, and yellow colors.

Tara, being the ocean of compassion, descends to this material world to save fallen souls from the vicious cycle of repeated birth and death. Whoever visualizes and meditates upon the form of Tara crosses the ocean of material existence. She is often depicted as having a beautiful youthful body and sitting on a full-blown lotus resembling the form of Goddess Lakshmi.

What is Tara the goddess of?

Tara is usually associated with Tibetan Buddhism but in Chinese Buddhism, she is considered the female manifestation of Guanyin. She is given the position of the supreme mother who is full of compassion and mercy. She enlightens living beings about the nature of this material world (temporary and full of miseries) and heals their emotional and physical wounds. She encourages them to walk the path of self-realization and to uplift their consciousness in order to come of material existence.

What does the statue of Tara symbolize?

Just as a mother is very merciful towards her child; she cries when the child is in distress or pain, similarly, Tara acting as the mother of the world, is the embodiment of all compassion and mercy. She symbolizes various qualities such as peacefulness, empathy, wisdom, love, and kindness. She helps all living beings come to the real or true understanding of self. As a Buddhist practitioner concentrates on the form of Tara, he develops these qualities that help him advance in his spiritual journey.

Where should Tara statues be placed?

If you are planning to buy the statue of Goddess Tara, you can keep it on the altar of your home. This will help you to focus better on Tara"e;s form and invoke her energy. The form of Tara is beautiful to look at and therefore, you can also place the statue/deity on a clean table or a shelf in your living room to spiritualize the entire space, leaving a positive impression on the guests.
