Белая Богиня
Белая Богиня один из многочисленных образов Матери Мира. Она олицетворяет принцип, хотя и является живым существом.
В Тибете Белая Богиня особенно любима и почитаема как Тара, богиня спасительница. Тибетские буддисты считают, что именно Мать спасет мир, и она приходит для этого в конце века Кали Юги.
Говорят, что Тара рождена в лотосе, выросшем в водах слез, пролитых Авалокитешварой, который, согласно древним текстам, «заплакал, увидев, что, как бы много существ он ни забрал из сансары, их количество не уменьшалось». Поэтому Тару считают женским дополнением Авалокитешвары, или его божественной супругой. Подобно Гуань Инь, Тара является бодхисаттвой сострадания. Существуют различные мнения о взаимоотношениях Тары и Гуань Инь.
The principle symbol of White Tara is the fully-opened lotus, representing the opening of the petals of the chakras. Statues of the White Goddess often show the richness of her raiment. Her crown and earrings symbolize the manifest expression of the abundant life of the Buddha and the Christ. The Mother symbolizes that all things in the Matter universe belong to her children, and so that abundant sense is part of her manifestation. She also shows the renunciate that the real wealth of the cosmos is in the spiritual qualities. The Mother is the one who owns nothing but owns everything, and in this balance we find the discipline of the Buddha.
She is often seated in the full lotus posture, Padmasana, permitting the free flow of the Kundalini. Her left hand is over the heart, and her right hand is extended in the gesture of giving, embodying generosity and the blessing of all life. The knot on the top of her head symbolizes the opening of the crown chakra. The elongated ears and the presence of the third eye symbolize the full use of the inner senses. The large ear is seen on all of the Buddhas, and it indicates the contact with God through the inner ear and the inner sound.
The White Tara is a manifestation of the Divine Mother, the cosmic principle of the Mother. Whether you call her Mother Mary or Isis or the White Tara of Tibet or Kuan Yin or Kali or Durga, she is still the Mother force, the shakti. She also lives within you. She is the Mother light within us all. She is ascended master and unascended master. The White Goddess is the white-fire core of our chakras as the Mother light, the Kundalini energy, the white light in the center of every ray. As you give adoration to that presence within yourself through the rosary, you are raising the energies of the Kundalini and connecting with the cosmic principle of Mother.
In a dictation with the White Goddess in 1977, Serapis said:
Precious hearts, the way of the White Tara is the way of those who see the ultimate need of humanity and are willing to make the ultimate sacrifice. Because of their sense of timing, they read the timing of the Lord. They are mathematicians with me. They are architects of a vast destiny. They see the timing of the enemy. And they know that for the game of point/counterpoint, they must be as a shaft of sacred fire, as the point of diamond, as the discipline of energy. And this is all of their joy, all of their play and laughter condensed in an intense sphere of light. Whirling in that sphere, they actually enjoy with God-delight every pleasure that other disciples take along the wider spiral.[1]
