Manimekhala

In Indic mythology, Manimekhala ((クメール語:មណីមេខលា), ''Moni Mekhala''; (タイ語:มณีเมขลา), ''Mani Mekkhala'') is a goddess regarded as a guardian of the seas; namely the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea as part of the mythology of Indochina. She was placed by Catummaharajika to protect virtuous beings from shipwreck.〔G.P. Malalasekera. Dictionary of Pali Proper Names: Pali-English. Asian Educational Services, 2003〕 She appears in several Buddhist stories including the Mahajanaka-Jataka in which she rescues Prince Mahajanaka from a shipwreck.〔Anne Elizabeth Monius. Imagining a place for Buddhism: literary culture and religious community in Tamil-speaking South India. Oxford University Press US, 2001, pages 111-112〕
==Etymology==
In Pali, ' refers to a girdle or belt of jewels. In Indochina, she is sometimes referred to simply as Mekhala; ''Neang Mekhala'' ((クメール語:នាងមេខលា)) in Cambodia and ''Mekkhala'' ((タイ語:เมขลา)) in Thailand. Her name was contributed by Thailand for tropical cyclone names occurring as 'Tropical Storm Mekkhala' in 2002 and 2008.
