Green Tara, known as Shyama Tara, is one of the most beloved deities in Tibetan Buddhism. She is regarded as the embodiment of compassionate action and is often referred to as the "Mother of all Buddhas." Green Tara is believed to have been born from the compassionate tears of Avalokiteshvara (Chenrezig), taking a female form to help liberate beings from suffering. She is especially associated with swift protection from fears and obstacles, such as danger, illness, or emotional turmoil. Her green color symbolizes enlightened activity and dynamic energy, ready to respond instantly to the needs of practitioners. Green Tara is often invoked for protection, healing, and the removal of physical and spiritual hindrances on the path to enlightenment.
