Who and why Green Tara?
It is said that in her course of saving sentient beings,
Avalokitesvara (Guan Yin) was saddened by the innumerable beings
that needed help. It was from her tears of compassion that
Green Tara arose and gave the assurance of helping to save sentient
beings. As such, Green Tara is swift in responding to those
who pray for her assistance.
It is an auspicious start to the new year to jointly make an
aspiration in improving ourselves. The Green Tara practice
will help us transform our own lives positively so we can be of
benefit to our family and friends initially and society at large
eventually.
