Tibetan Opera Nangsa woebum by TIPA
In the District of Gyantse, Tsang province, south-western Tibet lived a good peasant family of Phehue Nangba. The father of the family, Kusang Dechen and his wife Yansa Sedon were getting quite old, but continued to live pious lives, constantly praying to the Goddess Arya Tara and performing virtuous deeds. Their only regret about their lives was that they had not had any children.

However, the Goddess Tara took pity on them and Yansa Sedon gave birth to a truly beautiful baby girl. She was named Nangsa Wobum, which means, "The One given to this earth, whose rays of light would liberate 100,000 sentient beings".
