Green Tara Resin Statue

Green Tara Resin Statue. Green Tara, known as the Quick Liberator, represents the principle of Active Compassion in Tibetan Buddhism. Her name in Tibetan is Drolma, the Rescuing Mother. Tara is her Sanskrit name. We see her seated on a lotus arising from a pool, for it is said that she (along with White Tara) arose from the tears of Avalokiteshvara, the Bodhisattva of love and compassion, as he wept over the suffering in the world. Green Tara sits in a posture of royal ease, a calm, radiant, sensual young woman, dressed in flowing, silk skirts, a white half-blouse, and rainbow stockings. She is elegantly adorned with flowers, gold, and jewels, for her radiance and splendour is that of wisdom, compassion, and mercy, which she brings to the world. The ruby in the centre of her tiara represents her kinship with Amitabha, the Buddha of Infinite Light.
