Tara represents the quick wisdom and compassion of all the
enlightened beings in a female form. Praying to Tara eliminates obstacles
to the fulfillment of our wishes in general and in particular those of the
spiritual path. Tara's meditation practice is quick to grant success. Tara
breathes life into our spiritual practice and sustains us with boundless
energy to traverse the spiritual path.
