This beautifully detailed statue makes a meaningful addition to personal altars, meditation spaces, or spiritual collections, offering a serene presence and a symbol of enlightened compassion and protection.
Green Tara sits gracefully with her right leg stretched out, ready to leap into action for those in need, while her left leg rests calmly in meditation. Her right hand offers the varada mudrā, a sign of generosity, and her left hand shows the vitarka mudrā, symbolizing teaching. Each hand cradles a blooming utpala lotus, a token of purity and freedom. Adorned with a five-pointed crown honoring the Five Dhyani Buddhas and elegant bodhisattva jewelry, she rests serenely on a moon disc atop a lotus throne, blending peacefulness with compassionate readiness.
Introduction to Green Tara:
Green Tara, known as Shyama Tara, is one of the most beloved deities in Tibetan Buddhism. She is regarded as the embodiment of compassionate action and is often referred to as the "Mother of all Buddhas." Green Tara is believed to have been born from the compassionate tears of Avalokiteshvara (Chenrezig), taking a female form to help liberate beings from suffering.
She is especially associated with swift protection from fears and obstacles, such as danger, illness, or emotional turmoil. Her green color symbolizes enlightened activity and dynamic energy, ready to respond instantly to the needs of practitioners. Green Tara is often invoked for protection, healing, and the removal of physical and spiritual hindrances on the path to enlightenment.
How do you take care of your statues?
• Place them at room temperature, avoiding direct sunlight.
• Make sure that the area where your statue is placed is entirely free of moisture and dust.
• Place it at the highest place on your altar after being consecrated by the Lama/monks. The best practice is to keep them covered inside a glass cabinet.
• Do not use your bare hands or any objects with a rough surface to wipe the face.
• Directly touching objects with the bare hand can smudge the face, leaving scratches.
