Green Tara Thangka – Double-Sided Laminated Portable Art
Green Tara – The Mother of Swift Compassion.
A sacred image that embodies fearless action, immediate protection, and the boundless love that responds without hesitation.
This high-detail portable thangka depicts Green Tara (Sanskrit: Syamatara), the principal deity among the 21 Taras. She is shown seated in the posture of royal ease—one leg extended, ready to rise to the aid of beings—with her right hand in the gesture of generosity and her left hand holding the blue utpala flower, symbolizing her purity and boundless compassion. As the "Mother of All Buddhas," she is revered for her swiftness in removing obstacles, protecting from fear, and guiding practitioners on the path.
Printed on archival photo paper with double-sided protective lamination, this thangka offers two sacred images in one—front and back both protected and display-ready. The wipeable surface makes it easy to maintain, ideal for shrine use, meditation practice, or travel. At 13x18cm, it is compact enough to accompany you anywhere: on your desk, in your practice space, or beside you during Tara recitation.
Features
Why Choose This Thangka?
The Swift Rescuer
Green Tara is renowned for her swift compassion—she is said to respond to beings’ needs the moment they call upon her. Her image serves as a reminder that help is always near, that obstacles can be transformed, and that fearless action arises from a compassionate heart.

Whether at home, in a meditation hall, or on the road, a clear sacred image serves as a gentle anchor—inviting mindfulness, devotion, and a sense of connection to Tara’s immediate, unstoppable compassion.
A Meaningful Gift for Swift Blessings
Beautifully crafted and rich in meaning, this thangka makes a thoughtful gift for practitioners, travelers, those facing uncertainty, or anyone drawn to the protective and nurturing energy of the Divine Feminine.

You may have it blessed by a teacher if you wish. If not, placing it with a respectful attitude is sufficient. Many practitioners use this image as a support for Tara recitation and visualization.
