Green Tara, known as the "Mother of Liberation," is one of the most beloved deities in Tibetan Buddhism. As a female bodhisattva, she embodies the active and immediate aspect of compassion. Legend tells that she was born from a tear shed by Avalokiteshvara, the bodhisattva of compassion, and vowed to remain in female form to swiftly assist all beings in achieving enlightenment. Her compassionate and dynamic energy is invoked for protection, healing, and the removal of obstacles, guiding practitioners toward liberation and spiritual growth.
