Green Tara Thangka | Hand-Painted Goddess of Compassion and Swift Protection
Green Tara, the “Mother of Liberation,” embodies boundless compassion and the active power of mercy. In Tibetan Buddhism, she represents the energy that swiftly responds to the suffering of all beings, guiding them beyond fear and illusion. She is both protector and savior — the living essence of wisdom in action, whose kindness moves with the speed of thought.
In this thangka, Green Tara appears radiant in emerald green — the color of awakened compassion and enlightened virtue. She sits gracefully on a lotus throne, her right hand extended in blessing and her left holding a blue utpala flower — symbols of generosity and purity. Adorned with a five-jeweled crown and flowing silk garments, she embodies serenity and grace. The surrounding mountains, temples, and flowers form a luminous world of peace and protection, reflecting Tara’s vow to relieve all suffering.
Hand-painted in Lhasa, Tibet, this thangka continues the sacred lineage of traditional craftsmanship. Natural mineral pigments — including azurite, cinnabar, and malachite — are hand-ground and layered to create luminous depth and enduring color. Each brushstroke reflects meditative precision and devotion, transforming natural materials into a sacred expression of compassion. This is not simply art; it is a vessel of spiritual presence.
Created by Lixindi, a nationally recognized master of Tibetan intangible cultural heritage, this Green Tara thangka embodies over thirty years of artistry and practice. Renowned for his lifelike depictions and expressive faces, Lixindi’s work bridges sacred tradition and fine art. According to Tibetan belief, “the more vivid the image, the stronger the blessing” — and in this painting, Green Tara’s calm yet powerful gaze radiates divine grace and protection.
This thangka carries the pure energy of compassion and healing. Display it in your meditation space, living room, or altar to invite Tara’s blessings of serenity, courage, and guidance. For practitioners, it serves as a reminder that compassion is action; for collectors, it stands as a masterpiece uniting faith and beauty.
“Compassion in action is the path to liberation.”
Invite the luminous grace of Green Tara — a hand-painted thangka that embodies love, protection, and enlightened strength.
