[edit] Specific Mantras

The Tibetan mantra to white Tara is "OM. TARE TUTARE TURE. MAMA AYUR PUNYE JNANA PUSHTIM KURU, SWAHA" [1]. Another more common Tara mantra is "OM! Tara, Tuttare Ture, Swaha." I'm guessing that Swaha is Svaha. Secretlondon (talk) 17:53, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Citation needed

We need a reference for the idea that svaha is an old Icelandic word... I have looked in all the online Icelandic dictionaries and it does not exist. I can find no other reference to this on the internet so I would challenge that statement 210.9.138.36 (talk) 20:35, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
