About Green Tara Mandala

The Mandala in the middle is a palace for the Green Tara deities. A temple containing the essence of the Buddha. Four elaborate gates symbolize. The four directions: are south, north, east, and west. The four boundless thoughts: loving-kindness, compassion, sympathy, and equanimity.

Introduction To The Thangka :

According to the legend, Tara is an emanation of Chenrezi, the Bodhisattva of Compassion. Once when the suffering of all sentient beings very moved Chenrezi, he shed two tears. The tear from his right eye turned into the green form of Tara, and the tear from his left eye turned into the white form.
Green Tara is adorned in silken garments and jeweled ornaments. The main difference in the iconography between the green Tara and the white Tara is the position of the legs. Green Tara sits in a posture of ease, with one leg drawn towards her and the other resting on a lotus bud that springs from the pedestal. Her hands are in the mudra of perfect generosity, holding the stems of blue lotus, showing a peaceful and smiling expression.
