Guest guest Posted March 22, 2000 Report Share Posted March 22, 2000 From _Goddesses for Every Season_ by Blair Tara Tara is the Mother Goddess of Tibet and India. Cultures from India to Ireland derived the names of their beloved Earth Mother from Tara: Hebrew Terah, Latin Terra Mater, Etruscan Turan and Ireland's Tara. In Hinduism She is a Star Goddess, the unquenchable fire, calling new life into being. Often appearing as a celestial boat woman, She carries the suffering from the shores of ignorance and illusion to the shores of knowledge. In Buddhism, Tara is the Mother of All Deities. She is devoutly prayed to for the relief of human suffering. Her many guises include a young and playful girl Tara. She Who Laughs and knows the light-hearted games of life. Awaken the healing power of Tara's love. Springtime is filled with Her song. Light a candle and call Her name in your prayers. Ask for Her compassionate blessings. Take your girl Self into your lap, gently comforting her. What does she hunger and thirst for the most? Listen quietly to her wishes. Imagine that Tara surrounds you both with love. Let the strength of Her kindness heal the ancient wounds of your girlhood. It is said that Tara was born from a tear. Let your tears flow. Let yourself float along the river of Her love, becoming One in an Oacean of Bliss. AFFIRMATION: Tara speaks through me with words of love and compassion. I am always awakening. I nurture the little girl who lives in my heart. Every moment is a blessing. -- fa http://www.kingseyes.demon.co.uk/greatgoddess.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
