Iconography and Deep Symbolism

  • The Seven Eyes: White Tara has two ordinary facial eyes, an additional eye on her forehead, and one eye on each palm and sole. These seven eyes traditionally represent her compassionate awareness of suffering.
  • The Hand Gestures: Her lowered right hand, with its palm facing outward, forms the varada mudra, the gesture of generosity. Her raised left hand holds a lotus stem beside her shoulder, a familiar feature of White Tara imagery.
  • The Lotus Flowers: Lotus blossoms frame the upper body and reinforce the figure’s Buddhist identity. The lotus is traditionally associated with purity.
  • The Seated Posture: White Tara sits with crossed legs on a lotus pedestal. This balanced pose and peaceful expression convey stillness and contemplation.
  • Compassion and Longevity: White Tara is traditionally associated with compassion, healing and long life, and is an important figure in Tibetan Buddhist devotional practice.

Artisanal Excellence

Made in Patan, this statue combines reflective gold plated surfaces with detailed ornamentation. Scrolling patterns decorate the garments, while the crown, earrings and layered necklaces echo the intricate detailing across the figure. Red coral and blue lapis lazuli accents introduce contrasting colours throughout the decorative work.

The face is painted with gold powder and finished with defined eyes, brows and lips. Dark painted hair contrasts with the gold finish, while the additional painted eyes on the forehead, palms and soles highlight White Tara’s distinctive identity. Lotus stems, flowing scarf ornaments and the broad lotus pedestal complete the composition.

Caring for Your Statue

  • Placement: Keep in a clean, dry location, away from direct sunlight, moisture and extreme humidity, to preserve the gold plated finish.
  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the statue with clean, dry cotton. Do not use water, polishes or any cleaning chemicals, as these may damage the gold plating and fine details. Coarse materials or rough handling could dull or scratch the surface.
  • Stability: At approximately 4.570 kg, the statue should stand on a sturdy, level surface.
  • Handling: Lift carefully from the base with both hands. Avoid touching the painted face or applying pressure to the crown, lotus flowers and stems, fingers, scarf ornaments and decorative accents.
  • Storage: If not displayed, store in a dry place with soft protective wrapping. Avoid tight wrapping or pressure against the painted face and delicate raised details.
