Description

Green Tara is usually depicted as a compassionate being ready to step down from her lotus throne to offer comfort and protection from all of the sufferings we experience in the world.


She is shown “in a posture of ease and readiness for action. While her left leg is folded in the contemplative position, her right leg is outstretched, ready to spring into action. Green Tara’s left hand is in the refuge-granting mudra (gesture); her right hand makes the boon-granting [giving] gesture. In her hands she also holds closed blue lotuses (utpalas), which symbolize purity and power.” 


The brocade is Pema Chodron Pattern ~ This brocade was popular in the mid 90's.


Brocade measures 19 inches wide at the top, 21 inches wide at the bottom, and 32 inches in total lenght. The thangka measures 10 inches wide x 14 1/2 inches long.
