We are not writing about Tara today because her name means "star" and my last name is Starr. There are a lot of goddesses and many of deity which represent a celestial being.
Tara is the goddess of the month that we are invoking at the Purusha Center. She is a goddess of compassion and is a guide for the meandering and lost traveler.
This is a very transitional time for many and meditating and chanting in the name of Tara can be a way to clear some space in our lives for more compassion. Sitting with Tara, the thought of compassion and chanting the mantra below are means to create more compassion in our lives. Often, just the thought or intention of creation will help to manifest the ideology in ourselves.
She is a guide that helps our inner traveler find the way through darkness and into the light. She helps us find out true self by creating more compassion for ourselves. We can only find compassion for others when we have it for ourselves first. We can only forgive others once we learn to forgive ourselves first. When we are able to forgive the self for not living up to what the Ego has manifested over time, or not embodying that standard that society or acquaintances impose on us, then we are more able to forgive others for not living up to the ideals that we have bestowed upon them.
We can all benefits from creating a little more space for forgiveness, compassion and in turn, generating resolve and happiness for ourselves and loved ones.
Chant to Tara and Inspire within yourself the attributes that she exemplifies
