Tara is the female embodiment of the wisdom and compassion of all Buddhas! Her nature is said to be the 'wind element' and so she is very swift at coming to our help. On these live recordings you can hear that, when we get in trouble and lose the beat etc. Her mantra OM TARE TATTURE TURE SOHA is present in the bass line and is repeated through the whole thing, whether in our heads, our hearts, or the vibrations of our instruments.

Your support is very much appreciated! Extra donations will be forwarded to the NKT-IKBU, an 'international association of Mahayana Buddhist study and meditation centers that follow the Kadampa Buddhist tradition founded by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche.'
