The Yali statues are mythical creatures mostly found in South Indian temple architecture, known for embodying strength, courage, and protection.
A Yali (also spelled as Vyala or Sharabha) is a fierce, composite beast, often depicted with the body of a lion, the trunk of an elephant, and sometimes the wings of a bird or the tail of a serpent.
As a guardian figure, it is believed to ward off evil forces, offering spiritual protection to sacred places.
