Green Tara Circle

A tranquil space dedicated to nurturing compassion and reverence for all beings

We honour the teachings of the Buddhist tradition and the profound essence of Green Tara, the Bodhisattva of Compassion. This sacred circle serves as a reminder of our shared humanity and the importance of extending kindness to ourselves and others.

At the heart of this circle resides the sacred greenstone, Hine Pounamu, a treasured gift from the Waitaha people to Te Moata. Surrounded by lush ferns, this remarkable stone embodies love, compassion, and respect for all life. It is a symbol of our commitment to honoring the earth and fostering deep connections with every living being. As you explore this sacred site, may you find inspiration and solace in the qualities that Green Tara represents, guiding you on a journey of compassion and understanding.
