She is often called the mother of all the Buddhas\nHis Eminence Garchen Rinpoche has taught extensively on the benefits of White Tara practice. White Tara offers peace\, prosperity\, health and long life through her enlightened activities. She is depicted with a female body that is the brilliant white of a thousand autumn moons. Her third eye in her forehead symbolizes her vision of the unity of ultimate reality while she simultaneously sees the relative and dualistic world with her other two eyes. Her hands and feet also have eyes\, showing that all her actions are governed by her ultimate wisdom and compassion. She is the protective\, helpful and comforting mother who shows limitless kindness\, generosity and protection towards those who are tossed in the ocean of suffering.\n\nIf we recite her mantra and make a connection to her\, we draw closer to developing her enlightened qualities in ourselves.\n\nBring your bells and damarus!\n1st & 3rd Wednesdays\, Every Month \nAda Pierce McCormick BuildingUniversity of Arizona Campus1401 East First Street\nTucson\, Arizona 85719(Click here for a map) \nFor More Information: Zehra Conner: 299-1083 URL:https://www.drikungtucson.org/event/white-tara-practice-47/ LOCATION:AZ CATEGORIES:Weekly Practice END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Phoenix:20081018T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Phoenix:20081018T000000 DTSTAMP:20260510T202940 CREATED:20140813T001523Z LAST-MODIFIED:20140813T001523Z UID:10000310-1224288000-1224288000@www.drikungtucson.org SUMMARY:Sanga Meditation: Practice\, Study\, and Discussion DESCRIPTION:Sangha Meditation is an on-going meditation group that primarily focuses on ìThe Gradual Pathî meditation practices recommended by our centerís director\, Khenpo Sherab Ozer Rinpoche\, as well as other Drikung Kagyu lineage masters.
