Name of the painting: Tara....the feminine Buddha..
Concept : Goddess Tara, a female Buddha and meditational deity, is arguably the most popular goddess in the Buddhist pantheon.The feminine spirit is inherent in Buddhist scripture and iconography as well as in the practice of both male and female Buddhists in all traditions.The feminine spirit is inherent in Buddhist scripture and iconography as well as in the practice of both male and female Buddhists in all traditions.She is the protectress of navigation and earthly travel, as well as of spiritual travel along the path to enlightenment.The enlightened women or female figures named below all come from Vajrayana or "Tibetan" Buddhism, the school of Mahayana which originated in India.If the Buddha had been born a woman, would future generations have known more about his intimate feelings?
Tibetan temple banners frequently show 21 different Taras, coloured white, red, and yellow, grouped around a central Green Tara. The figure of the “self-born” Buddha, Amitabha, is often shown in her headdress, as she, like Avalokiteshvara, is considered to be an emanation of Amitabha.
