The ancient, sacred Sanskrit syllables of the 21 Taras Dharani from the Source of Tara Sutra (Kangyur) chanted beautifully with stunning illustrations of each Tara by Lasha Mutual. In the Nyingma visualizations, like the Atisha and Surya Gupta, each Tara is associated with colors: green for activity, red for power and magnetizing activities, yellow or orange for accumulating and auspiciousness activities, blue or black for subjugating or wrathful activities, white for pacifying, healing and long life, and so on. On each of the Lotuses, are symbols of the individual Tara (such as the bow of flowers for Kurukulla on Tara 5, or the Dharma Wheel for Green Tara (9). ARTWORK: Lasha Mutual's artwork is available through her website: Please support her wonderful Dharma activities! The 21 Praises to Tara, often chanted in Tibetan and English are sacred, powerful and activity-oriented. Devotees pray to Tara with these praises, asking Tara to bring the 21 sacred activities into their lives, including auspiciousness, compassion, generosity, good fortune, healing, long life, magnetizing power to influence people positively (Kurukulle). #buddhaweekly @BuddhaWeekly #21Taras #sanskritmantra MUSIC RELEASE: Now available on your favorite music streaming platform — Apple Music, Youtube Music, Amazon, Spotify, etc — in our release Buddha Weekly Mantra Collection 1.
