Sukhasadhana Tara, Accomplisher of Bliss [17/21]

༄༅། །སྒྲོལ་མ་བདེ་སྒྲུབ་མ་།།།
ཕྱག་འཚལ་ཏུ་རེའི་ཞབས་ནི་བརྡབས་པས།
།ཧཱུྃ་གི་རྣམ་པའི་ས་བོན་ཉིད་མ། །
རི་རབ་མནྡཱ་ར་དང་འབིགས་བྱེད།
།འཇིག་རྟེན་གསུམ་རྣམས་གཡོ་བ་ཉིད་མ། །

Homage to Tara of TURE, swift in accomplishment,
who arises from the syllable HUM;
Mandara, Potala and Sumeru,
and the three worlds in all their reaches,
she causes to tremble,
shaking earth and sky.

Nghi quỹ tu trì Lục Độ Phật Mẫu, Drukpa lineage

Tara “who perfects great bliss” appears peaceful, her body orange in colour. She has one face, two eyes and two arms, and sits in the sattva-paryanka posture. Beneath her are a golden sun disc and a white lotus. Adorned with divine silk garments and jewel ornaments, she holds in both hands the bright white disc of a full moon before her heart. Above her crown appears the green buddha Amoghasiddhi. She has the power to subdue thieves, enemies and every hostile force.
