"Tara is one of the most celebrated goddesses in the Buddhist world, representing enlightened activity in the form of the divine feminine. She protects, nurtures, and helps practitioners on the path to enlightenment. She manifests in many forms and in many colors to help beings. Tara's red form, representing her powers of magnetization, subjugation, and the transformation of passion into enlightened activity, has gained popularity in recent years with practitioners of Tibetan Buddhism worldwide. Tara is well known in the West as an embodiment of the divine feminine, and she is considered to be particularly powerful in times of plague and disharmony. Part one will focus on the origins, forms, and practices of Tara, providing the reader with insightful information and inspirations relating to the goddess, and how she represents the divine feminine from the Buddhist perspective. Part two will introduce Red Tara, a powerful and liberating form of Tara that is particularly important to connect with in a time of crisis. These chapters will cover the various forms of Red Tara found throughout the Tibetan Buddhist world, the particular qualities she represents, and how through prayers and meditation we can embody her qualities and truly benefit beings. An accompanying appendix will include some of the most practiced prayers, songs, and meditations on the goddess"-- Provided by publisher
