The sun (Surya) is worshiped as a god in numerous cultures and most often illustrated in male form.
However, in Tibetan Buddhism it takes the form of a goddess - "Marici" and is shown riding on a chariot pulled by seven horses in a manner similar to Lord Surya.
Some of the earliest iconography of Marici is found in India and Tibet, particularly near the ancient port-city and Buddhist site Salihundam of Andhra Pradesh.
In Mahayana Buddhist texts, Marici is the goddess of dawn, one introduced by the Buddha at Shravasti. In some aspects, she is comparable to, and likely a fusion deity derived from the feminine version of Surya and in others ways to Usha, adi shakti and Vajravārāhī.
She is also depicted as goddess of dawn (or light), a healer or the one who seeks enlightenment of all beings and she is alternatively a healer from the wrong state to the right state of existence.
