Garuda is well recognised as Lord Vishnu’s Vahana. He has the power and wisdom of a thousand eagles and the Viveka of someone who has been born a thousand times. He is half eagle, half human. The statue of Garuda that you can see on this website is a granite stone iconography of a stand-alone god. He is depicted in this sculpture seated on a platform with one leg resting on the surface. “Namaskaram mudra” is the position of his hands that reveals his incredibly dedicated personality. Right under his massive shoulders, two great eagle wings extended forth. They have a subtle tint to the engravings that are there. The serpent that may be seen peeping out from inside the folds of Garuda’s dhoti is an intriguing feature. A combination of human and aquiline poise may be seen in the incredible amount of detail and intricacy used to construct the face of deity. Look up at Garuda’s crown, and you'll see another snake’s hood. The stone’s enduring nature ensures the longevity of this beautiful sculpture, symbolising the perpetual bond between Garuda and Lord Vishnu.
