Tara is an emanation of the mother of all the Buddhas of the three times. She carries out all their activities, dispelling the obstacles created through the eight or sixteen types of fear. When anyone supplicates Tara, her response is swift. The activities resulting from her aspirations are extraordinary, and there is ample evidence of this, right up to the present day.

The special quality of Tara is her extraordinary compassionate resolve to benefit all beings by removing whatever causes them to feel anxious or afraid. Tara is the heroine who swiftly carries out the activities of all the Buddhas. She is the very identity of enlightened activityβ€”beyond that which we can mentally imagine or fathomβ€”and has incredible virtues that surpass any thought. In short, through the symbolic meaning, you realize the true state of original wakefulness.

The Tara Compendium gives the devotee the tools to apply the great energy and vitality of Tara in practice. Offering an overview of the many practices associated with this incredible Buddha, it places the gift of enlightenment into the palm of the reader's hand and affords the possibility to benefit others.
