Marici, known in Tibetan as Osel Chenma, is a solar deity who personifies the light of the sun and the power of invisibility. Often depicted as an emanation of Vairocana or associated with the goddess Tara, she is invoked by practitioners to remove hindrances and provide protection during travel or spiritual transition. She represents the virtue of swift, compassionate action and the radiant, indestructible nature of the enlightened mind that penetrates all darkness.
