Praise to the 21 Taras (23"X 30")

This beautiful prayer flag is an English translation of our traditional Tibetan flag (PF-5). It is the same size and the artwork is the same. The two look nice side by side. At one time Avalokiteshvara, the Bodhisattva of compassion, emptied all of the hell realms. But as he looked again the hell realms were immediately refilled. This flag is an English translation of the Tibetan original. The text reads like poetry in 21 stanzas. As he shed tears for these beings one tear transformed into the saviouress Green Tara who manifested her twenty other forms. The Tibetan script on this traditional flag praises Tara in all her manifestations. The verses conclude with her root mantra "OM TARE TU TARE TURE SOHA," the magical syllables that evoke the goddess.
