ORNAMENT CERAMIC - White Tara and close up of face

This special ceramic ornament has the image and mantra of White Tara on one side and a close up of her face on the other side. It makes a wonderful appearance in your shrine room! White Tara (Tib.: Drolkar) - The Mother of Long Life The White Tara practice can be done to prolong your life and to overcome life-threatening obstacles such as illnesses. Her practice can also be done on someone else’s behalf. Another beautiful ritual is to offer a Whita Tara image to a newly born baby to wish he or she may have a long life ahead. It is said that White Tara’s seven eyes enable her to clearly ’see’ all beings in the realms of existence. The right hand on her knee is in the gesture of Supreme Generosity, and in her left hand she holds a blue utpala lotus flower. Her hand mudras are similar to those of Green Tara. This thangka was painted within 24 hours during a special ‘Long Life Practice’ in the summer of 2009.
