Tara is perhaps the most popular feminine manifestation of all the Buddhas. Known to have been born from the tears of Avaloketishvara, the Buddha of compassion, she is believed to have made a strong pledge and commitment to rescue those in dire need of enlightened support and blessings especially in times of difficulties. Hence, she is popularly worshipped for her swift bestowals of wish fulfilling grace and energy.

There are traditions among the Tibetan lay community to request Tara pumas for welfare and comfort of an individual, family and society on a regular basis. A blessing of Tara is considered especially effective and appropriate for a person who may be seeking success and fulfilment of a virtuous mission.

About the Mystical Arts of Tibet:

For the past 30 years, the Mystical Arts of Tibet tours by the monks of Drepung Loseling Monastery have crossed the globe to offer these authentic, sacred Tibetan arts to enchanted audiences in major cities and smaller communities alike. Unity of Buffalo has hosted the Monks more than 10 times. After the break of the last few years, we are especially honored to be welcoming them back to Buffalo again.

Endorsed by His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Richard Gere, these events are part of a tradition that dates back 2,500 years. Audiences tell us they repeatedly find these programs to be both inspiring and transforming.
