Sungkhors (lit. ""protection-chakra"") are protective charms/amulets that contain miniature mandalas of specific deities folded and covered with intricate handwoven colored string designs stipulated by vajrayana texts of the specific deities. Although all enlightened deities are perfect in their blessing qualities, each deity is often associated with a different enlightened quality.
Tara is the supreme female deity in Buddhism. As the embodiment of the active aspect of buddhas' compassion, she is "mother of all buddha-activities." Tara has many forms such as the "Taras Who Protect from the 8 Great Dangers" and the "21 Taras." White Tara is particularly related to longevity and the prevention of accidental and untimely deaths. Wearing her sungkhor keeps one protected from all dangers - both outer and inner.
