• A fully enlightened female Buddha, Tara is the Buddhist goddess of compassionate activity

• Her right hand is opened out on her right knee, in the gesture of generosity
• Her left hand holds the stem of a lotus flower, which is blossoming next to her left ear symbolizing purity and enlightened transformation
• Her right foot is slightly extended because she is ready to leap to the aid of sentient beings
