Green Tara sits gracefully upon a blooming lotus throne, symbolizing purity and spiritual awakening. Her posture—the royal ease pose—with one leg extended and the other folded in meditation, embodies both readiness to respond to suffering and inner tranquility. Her right hand reaches downward, holding the stem of a lotus, signifying her compassionate engagement with the world and her wisdom in overcoming obstacles. Her left hand, raised to her heart in the mudrā of the Three Jewels, honors the Buddha, the Dharma (teachings), and the Sangha (spiritual community). A blue utpala flower blossoms beside each shoulder, its resilient bloom representing enlightened compassion arising even in the face of suffering. With a youthful and serene expression, Green Tara radiates warmth and approachability. She is adorned in sacred jewelry—necklaces, earrings, bangles, anklets—and wears a five-leaf crown, signifying her awakened nature and the richness of the Dharma she embodies.
