(mahAmAyUrI, mahAmAyUrI)
Mahāmāyūrī¦ (also Māyūrī, q.v.), n. of a work (our Māy) and of the charms it contains: Mmk 109.28; Waldschmidt, Kl. Skt. Texte 4, 152 ff.; Lévi, JA 1915.19 ff.; personified, Mmk 312.6; Sādh 177.11 etc.; 402.4; seemingly regarded as a rakṣā, q.v., in Sādh (cf. BR 5.648 s.v. mahā- rakṣā), where this form replaces Mārīcī of the list in Dharmas 5 (but BR's reference to ‘Vjutp.’, i.e. Mvy, is a mystery to me, since I have been unable to find this list in either of the edd. of Mvy accessible to me); in MSV i.286.15 ff. applied to a short charm to cure snakebite.
