Tara embodies the feminine principle of wisdom, compassion, and nurturing, often called the "Mother of all Buddhas" or "Mother of Mercy and Compassion." She is believed to have originated from the compassionate tears of Avalokiteshvara, the bodhisattva of compassion, signifying her role as a direct response to the suffering of the world. Tara’s iconography emphasizes her readiness to respond to the needs of practitioners, her association with nature, healing, and her swift, protective qualities.
