According to legends, Yali is regarded as a fearless beast to have supremacy over the animal world. It is said to be a guardian creature who protects human beings spiritually and physically. Yali has a cat-like graceful body, but the head of a lion with the tusks of an elephant (Gaja), and the tail of a serpent. Icons of Yali have been found on the entrance walls of the temples, and the graceful mythical lion is believed to protect and guard the temples and the ways leading to the temple. Its eyes, glowing with hidden mysteries, portrayed a vast realm of knowledge and mysticism. Its obsidian visage, adorned in deep shades of black, radiated mystery and depth. Yali’s form, which has been meticulously carved, reflects a flawless synthesis of force and grace and inspires awe in all who dare to behold it.
