In Hinduism, the goddess Tara; meaning “One who protects”, is the second of the Dasa (ten) Mahavidyas or “Great Wisdom goddesses”, and is a form of Shakti. Tantric manifestations of Durga or Mahadevi, or Parvati. The word ‘Tara’, and also ‘Tarini’ (another popular name of the goddess) have been derived from the Sanskrit root syllable ‘tAr’, signifying protection. In many other contemporary Indian languages, the word ‘tara’ also means star. As the star is seen as a beautiful but perpetually self-combusting thing, so Tara is perceived at core as the absolute, unquenchable hunger that propels all life.
