Praises to the Twenty-One Tara is a traditional prayer in Tibetan Buddhism to the female Bodhisattva Tara. (Tibetan called Drolma) also known as Arya Tara or Jetsun Dolma. The prayer is found in all four traditions of Tibetan Buddhism.  

Each of the twenty-one emanations of Tara has her own name, and a specific mantra with which she is associated, offering protection from various types of fears, harm, and calamities.

Tara has Twenty-One ultimate emanations according to the mantra of the Buddha Samantabhadra called “Twenty-One Praises of Tara”. Twenty-One Tara with 21 specific colors serves with a specific function. 

There are different styles and designs of tangka paintings that represent the Twenty-One manifestations of Tara based on distinct lineages and practices, in which forms, colors, ritual objects and even names or functions can vary.

Homage To The No.13 Taras - Yullay Gyalje

OM TARE TUTTARE TURE VAJRA DZAWALA PHAT PHAT RAKSHA RAKSHA SVAHA

Victorious Over War and Other Obstacles With and Without Form

Yullay Gyalje is semi-wrathful, has three eyes, and is red in color. She brings infinite joy to all beings and protects them from war and obstacles. Upon her utpala flower stands a vajra with open prongs. Light and sparkling Vajras radiate from the open Vajra, annihilating the hosts of enemies and harm-doers, completely surrounding everything with an indestructible Vajra tent.

Yullay Gyalje in Tibetan means “Tara, who gains victory over war”. She is renowned for protecting against all the obstacles related to wars. She is dark red in color. She can reverse the march of armies or stop the war completely. Her protection, also applies inwardly, too, as she stops hostile emotions born of conceptual thinking that disturb our awareness and wisdom and might lead us to warlike actions.
