This sacred representation portrays Green Tara, the female Buddha associated with compassion, protection, and swift enlightened activity. She is traditionally shown seated with her left leg folded in meditation and her right leg extended downward, expressing her readiness to rise and respond to beings in need. Her right hand is extended downward in the varada mudra, the gesture of generosity and compassionate giving, while her left hand is raised near her heart in a gesture of refuge and enlightened awareness, holding the stem of an utpala lotus. The lotus blossoms beside her shoulders symbolize purity and the unfolding of wisdom, while her serene expression conveys compassion, fearlessness, and attentive awareness. Her five-jeweled crown and elaborate ornaments identify her enlightened Bodhisattva form, while the lotus throne represents purity and liberation. Green Tara is especially revered as a compassionate guide who helps practitioners overcome fear, obstacles, and difficult circumstances, inspiring courage, kindness, wisdom, and the aspiration to benefit others.
