    Yeah, I think Padma is correct. That Tara's name in Sanskrit is Maha-Pratisari, she is deemed the Tara of Success and Victory over our inner and outer demons. Her multi armed form is the Mahapratisari form, and 2 armed form is the Pratisari form.

  • Praise to the 21 Taras! You can look up the mantra, too.

    I think her name is Sosol Drolma in Tibetan. She comes in a 2 armed form and a 8 armed form.
