The Legend of the Seven-Headed Naga Buddha
According to ancient texts, before attaining Buddhahood, Shakyamuni Buddha was meditating under a Bodhi tree by a lake. Mara, in an attempt to interrupt his meditation, used magic to create a violent storm, making the environment extremely harsh. Shiva, one of the three principal Hindu gods, seeing Mara's actions, immediately dispatched his seven dragon kings (serpent gods) to protect the Buddha. To safeguard the Buddha's meditation, the dragon kings not only battled Mara but also formed a seven-colored protective umbrella around the Buddha, shielding him from the wind and rain so he could continue his meditation.
There is also a legend that when Mara came to harm the Buddha, seven dragon statues appeared behind the Buddha, their power so great that they frightened away the invading Mara.
Regardless of the version of the legend, the Seven Naga Buddhas symbolize the boundless protection of the Buddha's Dharma and are deeply revered by the people.
