According to Tibetan Buddhist tradition, Green Tara emerged from the compassionate tears of Chenrezig (Avalokiteshvara), the Bodhisattva of Compassion. As he gazed upon the immense suffering of sentient beings, he wept with sorrow. From his left eye fell a tear forming a lake, and Green Tara rose from that lake, a female embodiment of his compassion in swift action. She vowed to remain in female form through all her lifetimes to aid those in need, challenging the notion that enlightenment must manifest in male form. Green Tara is deeply loved for her immediacy—she is known as the "Mother of all Buddhas" and the "Swift Liberator" because of her readiness to respond instantly to the cries of those in danger, fear, or despair. Her boundless compassion, calming presence, and the promise of swift aid have made her one of the most revered and beloved deities in the Buddhist world.
