GREEN TARA....
Green Tara is described as being the color of melted snow in a high mountain
lake- turquoise green...she is of the nature of light.
Her green color is indicative of the Buddha family she belongs to- that of
Amogasiddhi, her consort, the Buddha of all accomplishing activity.
Her specialty is to remove difficulties, danger, obscurations, and fear and to
transmit the blessing of perfect wisdom. In an outer sense Tara removes all
obstacles; in an inner sense she removes negative imprints and habitual patterns.
Her right arm is a sign of divine compassion, and her right hand is in the mudra
of boundless generosity, signifying that she bestows both the ordinary
accomplishments (supernatural powers), and the extraordinary accomplishment
(realization of the absolute true nature).
Although
lthough she is fully enlightened, she remains in samsara in order to benefit
beings.

Entry into the path of meditating of the bodhisattva Tara begins with
empowerment, the transmission of her enlightened wisdom and blessings.
When we receive the transmission of the blessings of green Tara, we first offer
thanks and visualize Green Tara… or gaze upon a likeness of her….
From the heart centers of Green Tara, brilliant light shines forth which strikes
ourselves and all sentient beings. This radiating light transforms our ordinary
bodies physical, emotional,conscious, and we become enveloped in this glorious
green turquoise light….Our mind/body/spirit becomes at peace…We rest
naturally in this state, remaining in this state being gently brought back to
everyday consciousness… in Divine Time….
This varies of course…on the individual….and time required….usually
between twenty minutes and half an hour***
