Tara, or "She who liberates," is a female deity who is known for her swift protection for those who call upon her, as well as her enlightened activity and compassion. Tara has been known by many names: Sarasvati, Mandarava, Yeshe Tsogyal. Often considered the patron protector of Tibet, she is the female aspect of enlightened mind, the embodiment of absolute bodhicitta. Tara will never abandon a practitioner in need. White Tara, in particular, is related to longevity and protection so that one may be of ultimate benefit to self and others. This beautiful gold plated statue of White Tara, sitting 8.75 inches tall, is an absolutely beautiful support for Dharma practice. The shimmering gold gives her a warm, luminescent quality which must be seen to be felt. The lotus flower she holds appears to be blooming in the light of her own radiance, as the detailing of her facial features truly brings the statue to life. This statue is a masterpiece, and she is sure to inspire all who gaze upon her.
