Specification Product Code: 5063 Material: Brass Statue Size: 4.5 inch x 2.0 inch x 1.5 inch Weight: 240 gm. Description The beautiful brass figure of Garuda is nicely carved out with a deep sense of finesse. Garuda is a Hindu divinity and is the mount (vahana) of the Lord Vishnu. Normally, Garuda is depicted as having the golden body of a strong man with a white face, red wings, and an eagle's beak and with a crown on his head. This ancient deity was said to be massive, large enough to block out the sun. Garuda is known as the eternal sworn enemy of the Nāga serpent race and known for feeding exclusively on snakes, such behavior may have referred to the actual Short-toed Eagle of India. The image of Garuda is often used as the charm or amulet to protect the bearer from snake attack and its poison, since the king of birds is an implacable enemy and "devourer of serpent". Garudi Vidya is the mantra against snake poison to remove all kinds of evil.
