Historical Background[edit]

The Garuda (Sanskrit: Garuḍa गरुड, eagle; Pāli Garuḷa) is a large mythical bird or bird-like creature that appears in both Hindu and Buddhist mythology.

From an Indian perspective, Garuda is the Hindu name for the constellation Aquila and the Brahminy kite is considered to be the contemporary representation of Garuda

Other nations adopt a more stylistic approach to the Garuda's depiction, where it depicts an eagle (being much larger than a kite).
