White Tara, famed for her caring spirit and healing abilities, is represented with detail, from her graceful posture to her delicate facial expression.
White Tara, a carefully hand-carved Buddhist deity, rests elegantly cross-legged on a lotus. Her seven eyes, which represent her caring alertness, make her apart. Aside from the two usual eyes, she has a third eye on her forehead, one on each hand, and one on the soles of her feet. These distinguishing characteristics demonstrate her ability to recognize pain in all dimensions and her willingness to provide assistance and compassion to all beings.

White Tara (also known as Dolma) is a Female Buddhist Buddha. White Tara appears as a female bodhisattva and goddess to benefit every living being. According to mythology, she was created from Avalokiteshvara's tear, which dropped to the earth and formed a lake. A lotus arose from its waters, which, when opened, showed the goddess. She, like Avalokiteshvara, is a kind, calming divinity who assists men in their quest to "cross to the other shore."
