Garuda, fabulous bird-man of Hindu and then Buddhist mythology, son
of Kashyapa and Vinatâ and brother of Aruna, the charioteer of the god Surya.
It is the vahana, or mount, of the god Vishnu. He is also considered the king
birds. In Tibet, Khyung (ཁྱུང) is the Tibetan name for the Garuda. Coming from
India, it was assimilated to the khading of the Bön religion, the eagle with golden horns. THE
black garuda is a deity of the nyingmapa school of tibetan buddhism that
held to suppress the ailments caused by the naga and spirits of the
earth. It is featured on the Lungta. He is represented in the iconography of

things. First, he saw a Ferris wheel. This wheel embraces the whole of
conditioned existence, it is of the same extent as the cosmos, it contains
all living beings. It spins non-stop: it spins day and night,
it turns life after life, it turns era after era. We can't see when
she started spinning, and we can't yet see when she
will stop spinning: only a Buddha sees that.

Bodhisattva SAMANTABHADRA

Protector of people born under the sign of the dragon and the serpent Samantabhadra,
whose name in Sanskrit means universal dignity, is a bodhisattva of
Mahayana, or great vehicle. Associated with dhyana, meditation,

he forms a triad with the Buddha Siddartha Gautama and the bodhisattva
Manjushri. Dignitary of the Lotus Sutra, and according to the Avatamsaka Sutra,

Samantabhadra made the Ten Great Bodhisattva Vows 1. Pay homage and
respect to all buddhas. 2. praising the Thus Come One the Tathagata (Buddha) 3.
Make abundant offerings. 4. Repent of wrongdoings and bad karmas
. 5. Rejoicing in the merits and virtues of others. 6. Ask the Buddhas
to continue teaching. 7. ask the Buddhas to remain in the world. 8.
Follow the teachings of the Buddhas at all times. 9. welcome and enjoy
all living beings. 10. To transfer all merits and virtues for the benefit of
all beings.

Known in Chinese Buddhism as Puxian, he is associated with
action, while Manjushri is associated with transcendent wisdom or prajna.

Responding to the name of Fugen in Japan, Samantabhadra is the subject of a cult
important in the Tendai and True Word currents.

Considered the adhi-buddha (Primordial Buddha) in the Nyinqma stream of
Tibetan Buddhism, it is often represented there in Yab-Yum, or union
indivisible male female with his consort or paredra Samantabhadri. Dzongsar
Khyentse Rinpoche following the Nyingmapa Dzogchen tradition qualifies nature and
the essence of Samantabhadra, the Primordial Buddha, as the source without origin
timeless and limitless Atiyoga teachings, and honors the point of view
contradictory maintained by certain parties arguing that the teachings
Dzogchen originated from the Bonpo tradition

Or from the Chinese monk Moheyan: “Samantabhadra is not subject to limits of
time, place or physical conditions. Samantabhadra is not a being
colorful two-eyed. Samantabhadra is the unity of consciousness and emptiness,
the unity of appearances and emptiness, the nature of mind, clarity
natural with unrelenting compassion - it's been Samantabhadra from the start.“

Unlike his more popular counterpart Mañjuśrī, Samantabhadra is only
rarely depicted alone and is usually found in a trinity on the side
right of Shakyamuni, mounted on a six-tusked white elephant. In these
traditions that accept the Avatamsaka Sutra as its fundamental instruction,
Samantabhadra and Manjusri flank the Vairocana Buddha, the central Buddha of
this particular Sutra.

He is sometimes shown in Chinese art with feminine features,
riding an elephant with six pairs of tusks while carrying a ``
parasol ''of lotus leaf (Sanskrit: chatra), wearing a robe and
features similar to some female depictions of Guanyin.
It is in this form that Samantabhadra is worshiped as the bodhisattva
protector of the monasteries associated with Mount Emei in western China in the
Sichuan province, an important place of Buddhist pilgrimage. Some think
that Samantabhadra's white elephant mount was the same elephant that is
appeared to Queen Maya, the Buddha's mother, to announce his birth. THE
Mahayana esoteric traditions treat Samantabhada as one of the Buddhas
"Primordials" (Sanskrit: Dharmakaya), but the main primordial Buddha is
considered Vairocana.

The people of Sri Lanka revere Samantabhadra Bodhisattva as Saman (also
called Sumana, Samantha, Sumana Saman). The name Saman means "the rising sun
morning". The god Saman is considered one of the guardian deities of
the island as well as a protector of Buddhism. Its main shrine is
located in Ratnapura, where an annual festival is held in his honor.
