Shyama Tara Thangka | The Goddess of Protection and Compassion | Mother of Liberation
This Shyama Tara thangka is a traditional Buddhist artwork, hand-painted on cotton canvas with natural stone colors and 24K gold. Created in the Karma Gadri style, it combines ancient methods with sacred materials to depict Tara's spiritual spirit. The pigments and gold enhance its vibrancy and longevity, making it a stunning and spiritual piece.
Shyama Tara, also known as the Green Tara, is a deeply respected figure in Tibetan Buddhism. Usually depicted seated, she represents her swift and compassionate response to the needs of all living beings. Her bright green color symbolizes compassion and vitality, while her Abhaya Mudra (gesture of fearlessness) and Granting Mudra (gesture of generosity) provide both protection and blessings. Legend has it that Tara was born from a tear of Avalokiteshvara, the Bodhisattva of Compassion, who vowed to help all beings overcome suffering. This beautiful thangka shines with her eternal blessings and serves as a heartfelt reminder of her caring and protective presence.
