White Tara, also called “the Mother of all Buddhas” is the perfect embodiment of graceful power, wisdom, and purity. As with Tara expressions in the other five colors, the vibrations of white color express the specific energy of White Tara. Pure, truthful, powerful, transcending all limitations – these are just some of the attributes of the color white that describe the energy of White Tara. Sometimes the White Tara is called “the Goddess of Seven Eyes” because, in addition to the third eye, she is also depicted with eyes in her hands and feet. This represents White Tara seeing all human suffering, as well as encourages the devotee to develop vigilance and sensitivity to the energy in an around them.
White Tara is seated in the more meditative diamond lotus position, with both legs folded under her, and her feet facing skyward.
Tibetans pray to White Tara especially for health, healing, and longevity. She offers healing to our wounds, whether it is our bodies or our minds that have been hurt.
In the metaphysical world, clear quartz crystal is the supreme gift of Mother Earth. Even the smallest is imbued with the properties of a master healer teacher. Ancients believed these stones to be alive, taking a breath once every hundred years or so, and many cultures thought them to be incarnations of the Divine. Meditating with a clear quartz crystal opens the mind and heart to higher guidance, allowing the realm of the Spirit to be transmitted and translated into the world of physical form.
The detail and craftsmanship displayed in this exquisite crystal White Tara statue is absolutely remarkable.
