This painting is a vibrant visual prayer meant to invoke Tara Mata’s blessings. It is both protective and meditative - calms fears, removes obstacles, and encourages spiritual progress. Green Tara is considered the embodiment of active compassion. In Buddhism, she is called upon to overcome fears and obstacles.
The pink lotus signifies purity and spiritual awakening. Her right hand shows the gesture of granting boons, offering blessings and protection, while her left hand signifies safety and removal of fears. The lotuses around represent the blossoming of spiritual consciousness, while the birds are the messengers of spiritual teachings. Floral patterns emphasises divinity, and the interconnectedness of life. The guardian deity on the top offers protection. Lions often symbolise strength, courage and the ability to overcome challenges.Try it!
