The Garuda is a mythical creature featured in both Hindu and Buddhist lore; a semi divine creature, half-bird, half-man. In Hindu mythology it represents birth and heaven and is the enemy of all snakes. In Buddhism Garudas are not a single being but more a mythical species, able to cause hurricane force winds with their several miles wide wingspan, charged to protect Mount Meru. In Tibet the Garudas are a symbol of wisdom and all over Sout-East Asia statues of Garudas are protecting the temples. No wonder the Garuda is also popular tattoo art!
