Ideal for spiritual home decor, it resonates with art lovers seeking mindfulness and ethnic heritage.

 Origin & Meaning of Green Tara

 Green Tara is one of the most beloved bodhisattvas in Tibetan Buddhism, believed to be an incarnation of Avalokiteshvara’s compassion—born from his tears. Depicted as a radiant green-skinned goddess, she holds a blue lotus (symbol of purity) in her left hand and extends her right hand in a gesture of blessing, promising to grant wishes and dispel suffering. Her name “Tara” means “star” in Sanskrit, signifying her role as a guiding light for spiritual seekers. In Tibetan culture, Green Tara is also associated with fertility, protection of women, and the power to transform doubt into wisdom.

This Tibetan Thangka embroidery merges artistry with deep cultural heritage. Crafted using silk threads and gold accents, it employs intricate stitching techniques to create vivid, three-dimensional imagery. The vibrant green hues symbolize nature’s renewal and Tara’s ever-present compassion, while the lotus throne represents spiritual growth. For collectors, this Thangka is more than art—it’s a daily reminder of courage, wisdom, and the universal call to alleviate suffering, making it a profound addition to any mindful living space.
