Keeping Green Tara Thangka in Home helps in following:
Green Tara Thangka (Sanskrit: Syamatara; Tibetan: Sgrol-ljang), filled with youthful vigor, is a goddess of activity. She is the fiercer form of Tara, but is still a savior-goddess of compassion. She is the consort of Avalokiteshvara and considered by some to be the original Tara. Like Avalokiteshvara, the Green Tara is believed to be an emanation of the "self-born" Buddha Amitabha, and an image of Amitabha is sometimes depicted in Tara's headdress.
Green Tara is believed to have been incarnated as the Nepali wife of the Tibetan king Srong-brtsan-sgam-po. In Buddhism, the color green signifies activity and accomplishment. Thus Amoghasiddhi, the Lord of Action, is also associted with the color green.
Green Tara is the benevolent deity of enlightened activity, who helps us to overcome fear and anxiety. Green Tara, also known as the 21 Aryas, incorporates all Tara aspects within her and as such is the most common image represented.
She represents the virtues of success in work, prosperity and wealth in the world, as well as increased abundance, merit, knowledge, intelligence, eloquence, and so forth. Green Tara practice, or meditative chant recitation, is used to develop certain inner qualities and to understand outer, inner and secret teachings about compassion and emptiness.
She is Protector who, when called upon, instantly saves us from eight misfortunes: fire, theft, lightening, flood, earthquake, enemy, famine and untimely death. Goddess of self mastery, mysticism, and the journey to wisdom, she playfully watches the game of life. Green Tara accepts everyone with unconditional love and has vowed to be reborn over and over in female form to help all beings cross over from suffering to happiness.
Green Tara is iconographically depicted 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 gesture. In her hands she also holds closed blue lotuses (utpalas), which symbolize purity and power. She is adorned with the rich jewels of a bodhisattva.
In Buddhist religious practice, Green Tara's primary role is savioress. She is believed to help her followers overcome dangers, fears and anxieties, and she is especially worshipped for her ability to overcome the most difficult of situations. Green Tara is intensely compassionate and acts quickly to help those who call upon her.
