Welcome to the 5th Annual White Tara Retreat organized by Dri
Thubten Dargye Ling (Garchen Buddhist Centre, Singapore) which is
specially dedicated to World Peace & Prosperity, the Well-being
of all Sentient Beings, All Glorious Gurus and the longevity of our
beloved guru, His Eminence Garchen Rinpoche.
Thus, welcome 2011 with meritorious activities of chanting and
writing of White Tara Mantra for the benefits of all.
White Tara (Arya Tara) offers abundance qualities
such as peace, happiness, wisdom,prosperity, health, longevity as
well as the elimination of obstacles and dangers through her
enlightened activities. She is depicted with a female body that is
the brilliant white of a thousand autumn moons.
Her third eye in her forehead symbolizes her vision of the unity of
ultimate reality while she simultaneously sees the relative and
dualistic world with her other two eyes. Her hands and feet also
have eyes, showing that all her actions are governed by her
ultimate wisdom and compassion. She is the protective, helpful and
comforting mother who shows limitless kindness, generosity and
protection towards those who are tossed in the ocean of suffering,
and if we recite her mantra and make a connection to her, we draw
closer to developing her enlightened qualities in
ourselves.
