About Red Tara also know as Kurkulle
Red Tara is a powerful manifestation of Tara, the goddess who embodies awareness of all phenomena. In Vajrayana Buddhism, the practice of Red Tara centers on transforming material desires into compassion and love through the ritual known as the Mandala of Wish-Fulfilling Essence. This ritual includes yoga, healing practices, and teachings that help practitioners understand the nature of the mind while cultivating compassion.
The empowerment ritual for Red Tara was originally taught by Amitabha Buddha and passed down through various esteemed figures in Tibetan Buddhism, including Avalokiteshvara and Padmasambhava. Guru Rinpoche entrusted the knowledge to his consort, Yeshe Tsogyal, who hid it as a treasure to be revealed when it would be most beneficial to practitioners. It was later rediscovered by Lama Apong Terton, and passed down to prominent lamas such as Sakya Trizin and Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche, who helped spread the practice worldwide.

A Stunning Healing Collection!
My story begins with the purchase of a full Fire Horse Moon Bowl collection. That fiery, energizing collection is quirky and brilliant. I learned though that bowls created under the Super Flower Blood Moon offer healing and transformation, and I need both. I began by buying a simple crown chakra bowl, to draw the heat from my body. It arrived from halfway around the world in perfect condition, and it’s sound was so luminous, I decided to buy the whole set!! I am thrilled about my purchase and I am deeply grateful to Mila for his assistance. I find it a bit funny that my bowls have traveled more than I have, originating in Kathmandu and passing through Dubai and Leipzig before arriving in the middle of the United States!! I will keep my eye on the productions of The Art of Tibet, and am most curious about the possibility of a Total Eclipse Blue Moon collection in a few years!

Nice quality bracelet
I'm happy with the bracelet, and this is my first healing bracelet. The quality is good, the elastic stretch string has multiple strands for a strong hold, so it was put together well. It also comes with a nice jewelry pouch.
I chose this company because the proceeds support Nepalese artisans including Tibetan and Newari, and I'm happy to support this.
