White Tara, also called "the Mother of all Buddhas" is the perfect embodiment of graceful power, wisdom, and purity. As with Tara expressions in the other five colors, the vibrations of white color express the specific energy of White Tara. Pure, truthful, powerful, transcending all limitations - these are just some of the attributes of color white that describe the energy of White Tara.
Sometimes the White Tara is called "the Goddess of Seven Eyes" because, in addition to the third eye, she is also depicted with eyes in her hands and feet. This represents White Tara seeing all human suffering, as well as encourages the devotee to develop vigilance and sensitivity to the energy in and around them.
In many ways, the energy of White Tara is similar to the energy of Kwan Yin; both goddesses are referred to as mothers and represent a strong and protective flow of compassion. The way White Tara is different from Kwan Yin is in her feminist associations.
If Kwan Yin turned from Heaven's gate and vowed to be here till every human attains liberation, Tara vowed to be born as a woman in all her lifetimes. Because of this, Tara is often called the first, or early feminist.
There are different facets to Tara's energy as evoked by her being represented in a specific color. For example, Red Tara helps one activate the energy to attain goals, Blue Tara helps transmute anger, and Green Tara heals from fear and helps remove obstacles. Yellow Tara can be asked for help with wealth or material possessions, and Black Tara's domain is power (inner or outer).
