Green Tara:
The Swift Antidote to Fear and Anxiety
White Tara:
The Maternal Light Overcoming Depression and Despair
Red Tara:
Transforming Trauma and Powerlessness into Strength
Green Tara is intimately connected to nature, renewal, and vital growth. In Buddhist psychology, she is the ultimate refuge from the "Eight Great Fears", which represent both external dangers and internal psychological blocks (such as pride, delusion, and attachment).
Â
-
Ready to Help: Her extended foot shows she is poised to spring into action the moment you call, making her the ultimate emergency support when panic or anxiety strikes.
Â
-
Healer of Anxiety: Her mantra (Om Tare Tuttare Ture Soha) specifically targets internal panic. Tuttare means to liberate from the eight fears, helping to calm the nervous system, dissolve chronic worry, and protect us from external conflict.
-
Seven Eyes of Wisdom: Eyes on her hands, feet, and forehead allow her to see suffering across all realms, ensuring that no hidden sadness or silent mental anguish goes unnoticed by her compassionate gaze.
Â
-
Granting Longevity and Vitality: Her practice assists in restoring  physical health and extending life. By helping to clear the heavy karmic imprints that manifest as severe depression, joy may be restored and practitioners can overcome life-threatening obstacles.
-
Overcoming Obstacles: Her fierce, magnetising energy subdues internal attachments, tames a hypercritical mind, and clears external blockages.
Â
-
Fearless Expression: Her vibrant presence empowers practitioners with the courage, vital force, and fierce confidence needed to break free from stagnant mental ruts and accomplish enlightened activities.

In Tibetan and Himalayan Buddhism, Tsa Tsas (or tsatsas) are sacred votive objects that serve as physical representations of divine presence and spiritual devotion. Beyond their artistic form, making and offering Tsa Tsas acts as a dynamic practice to purify negative karma, generate spiritual merit, and express reverence for the enlightened mind. Inside the sanctuary, hundreds of handmade Tsa Tsas line the altar walls, lit by traditional light offerings along with water bowls, to accumulate boundless merit.
