Invite the compassionate presence of Green Tara, the Mother of Liberation and Swift Protector, into your sacred space with this exquisite Green Tara statue, handcrafted by a skilled Newari artist from Patan, Nepal. This statue is traditionally cast in copper features a rich chemically oxidized finish created using a specialized acidic solution to form a protective brownish patina that enhances its intricate details. Gracefully seated upon a hand-carved lotus pedestal in lalitasana posture, Green Tara extends her right leg forward in readiness to rise and aid all beings. She is adorned with semi-precious stones, a hand-carved floral motif silk garment, and an ornate jewel crown, reflecting the refined artistry of the Kathmandu Valley.

Her right hand rests in varada mudra, symbolizing generosity and compassionate giving, while her left hand rises in vitarka mudra and holds the stem of an utpala lotus blooming beside her shoulder. Devotees seek Green Tara for compassionate protection, swift assistance, courage and liberation from fears and obstacles. Revered as a compassionate female Buddha who vowed to attain enlightenment in female form, Green Tara is traditionally placed on Buddhist altars, meditation spaces and home shrines as a meaningful focus for prayer and spiritual practice.

About Green Tara

Green Tara, also known as the "Mother Tara & Swift Liberator," is a revered celestial Buddha in Mahayana and Vajrayana Buddhism, embodying the active energy of enlightened compassion. According to sacred texts, she manifested from a tear of Avalokiteshvara, the Bodhisattva of Infinite Compassion, taking a vow to alleviate suffering and protect beings from all fears. Her radiant green form represents the vibrant flowering of wisdom and compassionate action in the world. Her teachings emphasize immediate response to suffering through the powerful mantra "Om Tare Tuttare Ture Soha", which devotees chant to invoke her blessings of protection, courage, and liberation from obstacles.
