About White Tara

White Tara is the healing female Buddha who grants long life and averts life-threatening situations. Often praised as the Mother of All Buddhas, she is especially beneficial for those who are older or who need healing. Supremely peaceful and meditative, she also helps quell anger, hatred and jealousy, and reduces miserliness, desire and attachment.

The white colour of her body represents purity, wisdom and truth. She sits in the meditative posture and has eyes of watchful compassion on her forehead, the palms of her hands and the soles of her feet. Her right hand is in the mudra (gesture) of unconditional giving while her left hand holds a blue utpala flower.
