Tara's
name means One Who Saves. She epitomizes the influence of the older
mother-goddess cults upon the Buddhist Mahayana religion. Her concept evolved
in India and later she became the most important goddess in the Mahayana
pantheon. She holds a very prominent position in Tibet and Nepal.
White
Tara has seven eyes. An eye of knowledge on the forehead and eyes incised on
her palms and soles. She can be portrayed seated with her feet in the posture
of meditation, standing or in a half dancing pose. Devotees invoke her for
deliverance from the Eight Great Perils: shipwreck, fire, mad elephants,
brigands, pouncing lions, serpents, prison and demons.
