White Tara is "She Who Hears the Cries of the World", the embodiment of unconditional love. Tara sees beyond all veils, all dualities, to the ultimate unity, the perfection within all Beings. With infinite compassion, Tara as Bodhissatva abides to ease the world's suffering. She bears a lotus blossom, the flower that symbolizes perfected mind, rising from the murky depths of illusion, to bloom in transcendent beauty.
