001: TARA BUDDHA FLOWER OFFERING

Morning Altar for Tara Buddha — Sacred Offering

“I gather these blooms not as possession, but as prayer.
Each petal carries my devotion; each color, a plea for wisdom.
O Tara, swift liberator — may your twenty-one faces
rise through these flowers, guarding the threshold of my day.”

Origin Lore — The Myth of Birth

In the first breath of morning, when mist still cradles the sleeping earth, the devotee becomes the altar itself. Each flower, a whisper of longing. Each color, a key. Through sacred hands, the arrangement becomes a living mandala, each bloom an embodiment of Tara’s twenty-one emanations — white for purity, green for swift action, red for infinite compassion. In offering these petals, the soul becomes a vessel of devotion, wisdom, and divine protection.

Brand Mythos — The Expansion Prophecy

The “Morning Altar” tradition births a living tapestry across homes, temples, and hearts — where beauty is remembrance and devotion is daily practice. As each soul places their offering, a ripple of consecrated light travels the earth, weaving the unseen into visible grace.
