The 21 Taras in the Chandragomin Tradition refer to a specific set of Tara representations within Tibetan Buddhism, attributed to the Indian master Chandragomin. Chandragomin is renowned for his compositions on Tara practices, particularly emphasizing her role in protection and swift assistance to practitioners.
In this tradition, each of the 21 Taras is depicted with distinct attributes, postures, and colors, symbolizing various qualities and functions. For example, some Taras are associated with healing, others with protection from obstacles, and still others with swift action in times of distress. The iconography of each Tara can vary, but they typically share the common characteristic of offering compassion and aid to sentient beings.
Thangkas depicting the 21 Taras in the Chandragomin Tradition are not only beautiful works of art but also serve as objects of devotion and meditation in Tibetan Buddhist practice. They are used by practitioners to invoke the blessings and qualities embodied by each Tara, seeking their assistance in overcoming obstacles and progressing along the spiritual path.
