About Goddess Tara
Goddess Tara is known as the second of the ten Mahavidyas. She is worshipped as a powerful form of the Divine Mother, especially by those who seek compassion, wisdom, and courage. In simple terms, Tara is the one people call upon when facing fears, dangers, or moments of confusion. In many homes and temples, she is remembered not just as a fierce goddess but as a gentle mother who protects her children. Her presence is like a guiding star, helping devotees find a way out of life’s darkest moments. Elders tell their children that Tara’s love is like a river—never ending, always flowing, washing away sorrow and fear. She is also respected in Buddhism, where people see her as the mother who saves and guides everyone across the ocean of difficulties. Lamps, blue flowers, and incense are offered to her with folded hands, and in her worship, devotees feel a deep sense of trust and relief.
Mantra of Goddess Tara
Early in the morning, before the sounds of the day begin, the air is filled with the gentle chanting of Tara’s mantra. Sitting quietly, devotees join their palms and recite: 'Hreem Shreem Hoom Phat, Om Hreem Shreem Hoom Phat, Shreem Hreem Shreem Hoom Phat.' The power of this mantra lies in its rhythm and the faith with which it is spoken. Each sound is believed to cut through fear, confusion, or pain. Parents teach children to repeat Tara’s name, especially in times of sickness or worry. Some families make the mantra a part of daily life, chanting together before meals or at bedtime. As the chant continues, its sound feels like a soft breeze—carrying away sorrow and building courage. Even newcomers can join, as the repetition brings a deep comfort to the heart. People believe that Tara herself listens and responds, wrapping her devotees in a blanket of protection and motherly care.
