A small antique gilt bronze Green Tara. She is seated in the royal ease (lalitasana)
on a double lotus throne. She holds the stem of a blue utpala flower in each hand;
in her right she displays the charity mudra, and her left hand is in the mudra
of bestowing refuge, with the joined thumb and ring finger that symbolize the
practice of wisdom and right action, and the three opening fingers symbolic the
Three Refuge - Buddha, Dharma and Sangha. Complimenting her sensuous beauty is
her divine countenance in lucid contemplation. In the simplicity of her radiance,
the superb statue is remaining in excellent condition.
