Mantra: OM TARE TARE TUTARE TURE SOHA
Green Tara is the goddess of universal compassion, enlightenment and virtuous performances. She is said to be the mother of all buddhas.
The word Tara means 'liberating'. Tara primarily liberates from fears of external threats. These include fear of elephants, lions, fire, snakes, thieves, stormy waters, slavery and evil spirits. Therefore, the green tara mantra is a ritual to ward off all these dangers.
The green tara mantra also protects from internal dangers. These are: pride, ignorance, jealousy, hatred, stubbornness, attachment, disturbing doubts and greed. For Buddhists it is a very powerful mantra, which offers tranquility and security.
