GREEN TARA STATUE

GREEN TARA STATUE

This statue has everything done under pure perfection. The fourth generation artist has invested a huge amount of talent and time making this intricately carved and skillfully made statue.

Here Green Tara is resplendent with her luxuriant diadem, earrings and ornamental bangles. She is swathed in a highly detailed dhoti and the soft folds and intricate borders of her blouse (choli) bring her lithe body to life.

The luxuriously detailed carvings of floral motifs on her dhoti, the Dharma Chakra and swans are the prestine work of a master craftsmen. 

Green Tara is in the position of elegant repose in royal ease: her right foot resting on an extended lotus. Her left hand in the jhana mudra, the gesture of teaching, compliments her right hand which is elegantly arched in the varada mudra the gesture of giving. Two lotuses rise from each of her hands. Her body is youthful and sumptuous, representative of that delightful aspect of Tara which is wisdom, compassion and strength expressed in the form of an eternally young 16 year-old girl. This is an exceptional piece which beautifully expresses the eternal beauty and resonant power of the embodied Goddess.

It is said that all these gods and goddesses were the members of a family but due to the critical situation of that period forced them to be apart from the family. So once in a year, they used to meet together at Bishnu Devi Temple and this special occasion of the happy day, people celebrate the festival with great norms. On this day they decorate the images with gold jewelers ,tikas, sugarcane, flowers etc. People sacrifice different goats in order to please them. In this way this great festival of Hindu is lasted on the 3rd midnight of 3rd day. — at Naikap, Tinthana.

There is no doubt that Buddha was born in Lumbini, Nepal. The word “Buddha” means a person who has personally been able to perceive the ultimate truth. Buddha was considered “Siddhartha Gautam” before being recognized as the enlightened being.
