White Tara is the female Buddhist deity associated with long life and traditionally depicted with seven eyes.
Known in Sanskrit as Sitatara, White Tara is a peaceful form of Tara especially prominent in Tibetan and Himalayan Buddhism. Her seven eyes are the two ordinary eyes, a third eye on her forehead, and one eye on each palm and sole. The imagery expresses compassionate awareness extending in every direction, including the six realms of rebirth.
White Tara is linked with healing, serenity, protection from life-threatening obstacles, and longevity practices. She is sometimes called the Wish-Fulfilling Wheel, or Cintachakra Tara. In Tibetan Vajrayana, she is also one of the principal long-life deities, alongside Amitayus and Ushnishavijaya.
A common mix-up is Green Tara, another major form of Tara. Green Tara is especially associated with swift protection and active rescue, while White Tara’s distinctive white appearance, seven eyes, healing role, and connection with long life identify her in this question.
