This powerful mantra supplicates Tara to swiftly (the reason tare is twice in the mantra) pacify all harm from war, violence, evil intentions, curses or mantras of others: sarva is “all” while stambhani is a type of black magic, ill-will, or the evil intentions of others. She has the power to shake all three worlds.  She stops all violence. HER MANTRA IS THE MANTRA THAT CONTROLS ALL OTHER MANTRAS. This is symbolized by her symbol, the Stupa.

OM TARE TUTTARE TURE SARVA STAMBHANI TARE SVAHA

HER SYMBOL IS THE STUPA which is the symbol for the Enlightened Mind of Buddha. It is through wisdom of the Enlightened Mind that Tara dispels violent thoughts, war, evil intentions including black magic or curses. The wisdom of the Enlightened Mind, symbolized by the Stupa, controls all other mantras. (This is why her mantra is “the mantra that controls all other mantras.)

Her Name Translates as: She Who Causes the Three Realms to Tremble

 HER PRAISE explains why:

Homage! TURE! With seed letter
Of the shape of syllable HUM!
By foot stamping shakes the three worlds,
Meru, Mandara, and Vindhya!

In Sanskrit this praise is:

Namas Ture pada ghata
Hum karakara bijite
meru mandara kailasa
bhuvana traya chalini

Color: Red-yellow
Vase: Yellow
Nectar: Overcomes and pacifies all maras and obstacles, shaking the three worlds
Activity: Magnetizing and controlling the power of mantras
Specialty: Calms all obstacles no matter how overwhelming.

Visualization from Lama Zopa:

“On the seventeenth petal is Tara Who Causes the Three Realms to Tremble (Drölma Jikten Sumyowa), red-yellow in color. Pacifying maras and obstacles, shaking the triple world, she holds a yellow flask containing nectar whose function is to control the power of mantras, which means controlling those who try to harm you using mantras.”

Mantra:

OM TARE TUTTARE TURE SARVA STAMBHANI TARE SVAHA

She is “red-gold” or “orange” to symbolize she both controls (symbolized as red) and “enriches” or multiplies peaceful thoughts and intentions, soothing even the wildest thoughts.

She is also very fast, symbolized by the symbols “tare” repeated twice in the mantra.

When we feel threatened, Tara calms us — and those who would harm us.
