Statue métallique Tara Verte dansante 13cm – Espaces de méditation et de pleine conscience

The Sacred Presence of Green Tara

Among the many forms of Tara, Green Tara is especially associated with active compassion.

Rather than remaining distant or withdrawn, she represents enlightened energy that responds swiftly to suffering. Her presence is traditionally invoked in times of fear, uncertainty and difficulty, making her an especially meaningful figure for meditation, prayer and personal devotional practice.

In this dancing form, Tara appears light, graceful and alive with movement. The posture suggests that compassion is not passive: it moves, acts and reaches outward where help is needed.

Her serene expression balances this movement with inner stillness, creating a figure that feels both radiant and composed.

What Does the Blue Lotus Symbolise?

The blue lotus, or utpala, is associated with wisdom, purity and spiritual awakening.

Like a lotus rising clean from muddy water, it reflects the possibility of clarity and compassion emerging through the challenges of worldly life.

In images of Green Tara, the lotus is often shown beside her as a sign of awakened understanding and the unfolding of enlightened qualities.

Green Tara and the 21 Taras

Green Tara is closely connected with the wider tradition of the 21 Taras, whose praises are recited across Tibetan Buddhist communities.

The Twenty-One Praises of Tara honour Tara in multiple forms, each expressing a different quality of enlightened activity. These practices may be used to cultivate courage, remove obstacles, calm fear and deepen compassionate awareness.

White Tara and Green Tara are among the best-known forms. White Tara is commonly associated with longevity and healing, while Green Tara is linked with swift compassion, protection and fearless action.

The Green Tara Mantra

A mantra traditionally associated with Green Tara is:

Om Tare Tuttare Ture Svaha

A common pronunciation guide is:

Om Tah-ray Too-tah-ray Too-ray Swah-hah

Within Buddhist practice, the mantra is recited as a devotional and meditative support. It may be used to steady the mind, invoke Tara’s compassionate qualities and cultivate courage in the face of difficulty.

Its meaning and use belong to a living spiritual tradition, and practitioners may wish to learn the pronunciation and practice from a qualified teacher.

For Altars and Meditation Spaces

At approximately 13cm high, this statue is compact enough for a personal altar while still carrying a strong visual presence.

It may be placed on:

a home shrine, meditation shelf, ritual table, sacred corner, yoga-space display or devotional cabinet.

The antique gold finish pairs naturally with candles, flowers, incense holders, prayer beads, offering bowls and rich altar fabrics.

Choose a clean, respectful position where the figure can be seen clearly and handled with care.

Handcrafted Antique-Gold Finish

The statue is made from metal and finished in an antique gold tone that highlights the flowing posture, lotus stem and intricate surface detail.

The aged appearance is intended to feel warm and traditional rather than bright or highly polished.

Because the piece is handcrafted, minor differences in tone, texture and detail may occur. These subtle variations form part of its individual character.

A Meaningful Spiritual Gift

Green Tara is widely associated with compassion, reassurance and the courageous removal of obstacles.

This makes the statue a thoughtful gift for someone beginning a meditation practice, creating a home altar, marking a spiritual milestone or seeking a devotional symbol of guidance and inner strength.

It may also be chosen simply for its graceful artistry and the sense of calm it brings to a sacred or contemplative space.

Care and Respectful Display

Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth or brush.

Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals and prolonged damp, as these may affect the antique finish.

Keep indoors on a stable surface and handle with care, especially around the lotus and finer decorative details.

As a sacred image within Buddhist tradition, many people prefer to display Tara in a clean, elevated and respectful position.

Perfect For

Home altars, Tibetan Buddhist-inspired spaces, meditation rooms, ritual settings, yoga studios, sacred shelves, devotional collections and meaningful spiritual gifts.
