Green Tara - Protection from dangers and suffering Heart Sticker

Tara means "star," "planet," or "she who ferries across." She is a bodhisattva embodying compassion in the female form of a young goddess. She is often considered to be such an advanced bodhisattva that she is actually a Buddha. According to a Buddhist teacher Sangharakshita, a traditional explanation of the mantra is that the variations of her name represent three progressive stages of salvation. 1.Tāre represents salvation from mundane dangers and suffering. Tara is seem as a savioress who can give aid from material threats such as floods, crime, wild animals, and traffic accidents. Tara is therefore said to protect against ordinary worldly dangers. 2. Tuttāre represents deliverance into the spiritual path conceived in terms of individual salvation. In traditional terms, this is the path of the Arhant, which leads to individual liberation from suffering. Tara therefore offers individual protection from the spiritual dangers of greed, hatred, and delusion: the three factors that cause us individual suffering Literal translation. Mantra: "Oṃ Tāre Tuttāre Ture Svāhā / Om Tare Tuttare Ture Svaha". The literal meaning of the mantra: “Tare” is the vocative form of Tara, so it means “O Tara!” “Tu” is an exclamation that can mean “pray! I beg, do, now, then,” and so “tuttare” could mean something like “I entreat you, O Tara” or “I beg you, O Tara.” “Ture” is probably the vocative form of “tura,” which means “quick, willing, prompt,” and so it would mean something like “O swift one!” So the mantra could be rendered as “OM! O Tara! I entreat you, O Tara! O swift one! Hail! Listen Mantra here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPDp9a5BHMM
