The balanced round composition enhances intimacy and focus, making it especially appropriate for practitioners and collectors who value direct visual connection.

② Deity Introduction

Green Tara is revered in Tibetan Buddhism as a compassionate manifestation of Avalokiteshvara, known for her swift response, protective presence, and nurturing clarity.

She is traditionally honored as the “Mother of Enlightened Activity”, embodying beauty, wisdom, vitality, and fearless compassion.
Her iconography reflects calm reassurance and gentle strength rather than dramatic force, making her one of the most approachable and widely beloved female figures in Buddhist practice.

③ Spiritual Meaning & Practice Logic

Green Tara is traditionally associated with protection, emotional steadiness, and compassionate action.
Her practice emphasizes presence, clarity, and the courage to respond wisely to life’s challenges.

A well-known expression connected to Green Tara is the mantra:

Om Tare Tuttare Ture Soha

This mantra is traditionally recited as a reminder of protection, inner resilience, and mindful awareness.
Its inclusion here reflects cultural and devotional completeness, rather than any promise of specific outcomes.

④ Sacred Mantra Seed & Ghau Symbolism

This pendant incorporates the seed syllable associated with Green Tara mantra practice, placed within the Ghau box as part of traditional devotional structure.

The round copper Ghau box functions as a portable shrine, preserving both the visual and symbolic integrity of Tibetan Buddhist devotional objects.

The back of the Ghau box is engraved with the Double Vajra (Vishvavajra) symbol, traditionally associated with:

• Stability and balance

• Protection in all directions

• Harmonization of inner and outer awareness
