Tara is actually the perfection of
wisdom, and she is the mother of all the
Buddhas,
Bodhisattvas, Shravakas, and Pratyeka Buddhas. This wisdom is actually beyond any
forms or signs or descriptions. But out of great
compassion, in order to help sentient beings, she appears in a physical form that is the Tara. The word Tara means “Saviour” or “One Who Saves”.
Why Tara is called as the female Buddha?
There are male and female Buddhas .
