Who is Green Tara?

For Tibetans, Green Tara is one of the most prominent deities in Buddhism, a radiant savior symbolizing the image of a woman who has attained perfect enlightenment.

About Green Tara Thangka Art

Thangkas are exquisite hand-painted depictions of Green Tara, a deity in Buddhism associated with enlightened action and abundance. Both Green Tara Thangka pendants and  paintings are used for meditation, healing the mind, and drawing upon the compassionate energy of Tibetan Buddhist art. Green Tara is often seen as a bodhisattva or Buddha of compassionate action, a protector who alleviates physical, mental, and spiritual suffering. In Buddhism, her name “Tara” means “guide across the sea,” symbolizing her mission to liberate humanity from Samsara (the sea of ​​illusion).

Green Tara was born from the tears of Avalokitesvara, an emanation of the compassionate bodhisattva. She possesses multiple incarnations, with different colors representing different aspects of her energy. As Green Tara, she symbolizes active compassion, providing assistance and protection to all sentient beings.

The mantra “Om Tare Tuttare Ture Soha” is closely associated with Tara, especially as an emanation of Green Tara. Reciting this ancient mantra allows one to invoke Tara’s blessings and protection.
