White Tara (also known as Sita Tara) is a Female Buddha in the Buddhist tradition. White Tara appears as a female bodhisattva and goddess, dedicated to benefiting every living being. According to mythology, she was created from Avalokiteshvara's tear, which dropped to the earth and formed a lake. A lotus arose from its waters, which, when opened, showed the goddess. She, like Avalokiteshvara, is a kind, calming divinity who assists men in their quest to "cross to the other.
