AIBLP Centre will hold recitation of 21 Tara verses 21 times, followed by Smoke Offering once a month, commencing on Sunday, 31st August commencing at 1.30 pm. 

Tara is the most important female deity of the Buddhist Pantheon.  Tara is the mother Goddess of Compassion, born from a tear of the Bodhisattva off Mercy, Avalokiteshvara.  Tara is believed to protect human beings while they are crossing the ocean of existence.  Tara is the overcomer of obstacles and is especially known for her power to overcome the most difficult situation, giving protection against dangers and all kinds of fear.  Green Tara's right leg is extended to indicate her readiness to come and aid those in need.
