Tara is the central female diety of Tibet. As a bodhisattva, she blesses and
saves those who pray to her. The faithful may appeal to her directlly without
the intermediary of a lama. She is an emanation of Avalokitesvara, the
bodhisattva of mercy. She is considered the mother of all buddhas and
bodhisattvas.
There are 21 forms of Tara. The Tara shown in this figurine is Green Tara. Green
Tara is particularly associated with earth and conservation and protection of
the planet. She is incarnate in all good women, crowned and adorned with flora
and fauna of earth's harvest. She is particularly
associated with conservation and protection of the planet, often resonnating
with gardening women or those that find solace in the natural world.
She is usually pictured seated on a lotus throne, right leg pendant with foot
supported by a small lotus. Her right hand is in "charity" mudra and
her left in "argument" mudra.
