Homage to The No.18 Taras - Maja Chenmo

OM TARE TUTTARE TURE SARVA VISHA TARA PHAT SVAHA

Great Peacock, Protecting from and Pacifying All Kinds of Poison

Maja Chenmo is peaceful and white in color. She protects from poison. Upon her utpala flower is a full moon marked with a rabbit. From this, the rays of nectar light radiate, spreading in all directions and completely removing all poisons from the environment and sentient beings. The moon symbolizes self-arisen wisdom that is free from increasing and decreasing, transition or change.

This emanation of no. 18 Tara's Tibetan name is Tara Maja Chenmo. Now Mayura is the Sanskrit word for "peacock," which is maja Irma ball in Tibetan, so she is the "great one of the peacock." Pea­cocks are especially associated with protection from poisons because it is said that the peacock eats poison and transforms it into the beauty of its plumage.

Thus Tara Maja Chenmo's special activity is counteracting or dispelling inner and outer poisons. These might be food, water, environmental pollution, or any type of unhealthy situation. Maja Chenmo is also renowned for her compassion in pro­tecting infants and young children.

There's a beautiful traditional story about Tara's role in the great Nagarjuna's 96 childhood. He was born into a rich, high-caste Brah­min family. As was traditional, after his birth the sign-reader came to read the baby's palm. 

He told Nagarjuna's parents that their son would surely die after one week unless they did certain practices on Tara Maj a Chenmo. Although they were Brahmins and didn't want to do this Buddhist practice, they agreed and the threat to Nagar­juna's life was averted for that time.

When he was seven, his parents brought Nagarjuna to Nalanda University. At that time Nalanda was still quite a small university, with only a few temples and buildings. There he received initiation and transmission for the practice of Tara Maja Chenmo, realized it, and it is taught that he extended his life to over six hundred years.

Om Jetsunma pal ma drolma la chaktsal lo

Om Homage to the noble lady Tara

Chak tsal lha yi tso yi nam pe

Homage to you who holds in your hand

Ri dak tak chen chak na nam ma

A moon like a celestial lake
