21 Tara Mantra
RedLantern:
Tara is a completely enlightened Buddha who had previously promised to appear after enlightenment in a form of a female bodisattva and Goddess for the benefit off all beings.
There are innumerable manisfestation of Tara,manifesting in so many ways as sentient beings require,but her most famous are the peaceful White Tara, who brings protection, long life and peace and the dynamic Green Tara who overcome obstacles and saves beings in dangerous situation in the most immediate manner .Tara manifest in the 21 forms of Tara.
Midakpa:
The 21 Tara mantras can also be found in John Blofeld's book called "Mantras. Sacred Words of Power." (1977). But the version given by Blofeld is different from the one from TK. The best is to recite the one you received from your guru.
I'm reading an oral commentary on the 21 praises To Tara entitled "Tara's Enlightened Activity" (2007) by Khenchen Palden Sherab and Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal. I've learned a lot from the commentary on the meanings of the praises at the word level, as well as on the practice of the general meaning, the hidden meaning and the ultimate meaning.
There's another book that teaches visualisation and explains the special practices used in the meditations. It is called "The Tara Book" and it is by Gehlek Rinpoche and Brenda Rosen (2004).
