② Deity Introduction
Green Tara (Bodhisattva Tara), also known as Shengjiu Dumo or Drolma, is one of the most widely revered female deities in Tibetan Buddhism. She is regarded as a manifestation of Avalokiteshvara (Chenrezig) and is honored as one of the Twenty-One Taras.
Green Tara is traditionally venerated as a compassionate and responsive bodhisattva, symbolizing active compassion, swift assistance, and protective care, and holds a deeply rooted place in both monastic and lay devotional practice.
③ Spiritual Meaning & Practice Logic
Green Tara is traditionally associated with the aspiration to overcome fear, cultivate courage, and transform doubt into clarity and wisdom. In Tibetan Buddhist practice, devotion to Green Tara emphasizes responsiveness, mindful awareness, and compassionate engagement with life’s challenges.
Her practice highlights inner transformation and ethical intention rather than external outcomes, encouraging practitioners to develop steadiness, compassion, and insight as part of a sustained spiritual path.
④ Combined Practice Logic
