She is the most powerful goddess in the Buddhist pantheon, worshipped for her motherly and compassionate nature. Tara has 21 forms that are each linked with different aspects of her enlightenment that are represented by 5 colors: red, white, blue, yellow, and green. Green Tara is considered to be her central, most powerful form.
