Homage And Praises To The Twenty-One Taras

Homage and praises to the Green Tara and Twenty-One Taras

贊頌二十一個救度佛母

[OM TARE TUTARE TURE SOHA]

OM to the transcendent subduer, Arya Tara, I prostrate,

Homage to the glorious one, who frees with TARE,

With TUTARE, you calm all fears,

You bestow all success with TURE,

To the sound SOHA, I pay great homage. 
  

Green Tara is known as the “swift One” or the “swift Liberator” due to her immediate response to those who request her help. Green Tara reaches out her hand in the gesture of granting protection, freeing one from fear, obstacles, and difficulties. With her right foot stepping forward, she is alert, determined and ready to actively help all who call upon her.

There are so many inner obstacles to the development of our minds and these inner obstacles create many outer obstacles. Therefore, for the success of our Dharma practices, of our actualizing the graduated path to enlightenment, we must rely upon a special Yidam or Buddha such as the Compassionate Goddess of Mother Tara.

Many great Indian Yogis, an example is the great Pandit Lama Atisha relied upon mother Tara. Lama Atisha was able to bring extensive benefits to the Buddha’s teachings and sentient beings. All his success came from Tara. So it is important to have a full trust, confidence and devotion when reciting the mantra, and the praises to the twenty-one Taras prayer at dawn or dusk, at any time of the day or night.

Reciting the Tara mantra or praises to the twenty-one Tara’s practice. Tara can be able to help us overcome many problems in our life. She will liberate us from the untimely death, help us recover from diseases, bring success in business, help us to get job.

H.E Lama Zopa Rinpoche has once said, if we recite the twenty-one Taras’ prayer once every evening, it is impossible one will or to die of starvation.

Nagarjuna's Dedication of Merit

So nam di yi tham chay zig pa nyi
Thob nay nye pa'i dra nam pham jay nay
Kye ga na chi'i ba lab thrug pa yi
Si pa'i tso lay dro war drol war shog.

By this merit may we obtain omniscience then.
Having defeated the enemies wrong-doings.
May we liberate migrators from the ocean of existence.

With its stormy waves of birth, old age, sickness and death.
