Green Tara, revered as the Swift Liberator and embodiment of compassionate activity (karuṇā in action), is iconographically portrayed seated with elegance upon a blooming lotus throne. Her right leg is extended forward, symbolizing her readiness to respond instantly to the suffering of sentient beings. In both hands, she holds fully blossomed lotus flowers, representing spiritual awakening and the purity that arises unsullied from the mire of samsara. Her right hand extends downward in the Varada Mudra, the gesture of supreme generosity, bestowing blessings and protection. Her left hand forms the Three Jewel Mudra, symbolizing her reverence for the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha—the foundational refuges of the Buddhist path. Adorned with a crown featuring the Five Dhyani Buddhas, Green Tara embodies the quintessence of enlightened wisdom (prajñā) in its fivefold expressions, revealing her luminous insight and vigilant guardianship. Her resplendent green hue evokes vitality, renewal, and a nurturing connection with the natural world. This vibrant color also conveys her healing energy and swift compassion. Radiating calm strength and unwavering dedication, Green Tara's sacred presence inspires confidence, offering solace and guidance on the path toward liberation.
