Progression. Quick Intelligence and Unstoppable
Indian Mythology has its place for animals and birds as Gods and demi-gods in the same lineage of our mainstream Gods too. Snakes (Naga Panchami) are worshipped, so is a tortoise (Samudra Manthan), Bear (Jambhavant in Ramayan), Monkey (Hanuman in Ramayan and Mahabharata), Cow (Kamadhenu), Elephant (Ganesha), Peacock is the Vahana of Lord Muruga or Karthikeya, Tiger (as the Vahana-mount of Goddess Durga). Similarly the Eagle or the Garuda has a special place in our epics and stories. Garuda is also known as Pakshi Raja (the king of Birds)
Garuda - the Eagle God, the divine eagle, is the vehicle, or Vahana, of Hindu God Vishnu. Nagas or Snakes are his permanent enemies. There is an interesting story in the Purana that explains why Garuda and snakes are enemies.
The Garuda is a large legendary bird, bird-like creature, or humanoid bird that appears in both Hindu and Buddhist mythology.
In Buddhist mythology, the Garuda (Pāli: garuḷā) are enormous predatory birds with intelligence and social organization. Another name for the Garuda is suparṇa (Pāli: supaṇṇa), meaning "well-winged, having good wings".
*Paya Krut* is the Thai name for the Garuda Deity. Thai believe that praying to Garuda will bring wealth, gold, possessions, and Metta (Popularity and preference from others) as well as cleaning out any black magic or bad Karmic influence, negative energies etc from your psyche, and in the household.
The Garuda has Great Might and Commanding Power, and symbolizes Development, Advancement and Prosperity.
Garuda increases Your Status and Influential Power. He is the Lord of all birds, and is the Sacred Vehicle of Transport for Pra Narai (Vishnu Deva).
Garuda is blessed with Invincibility and Immortality, no weapon in the Universe can Destroy him. Even the Lightning Bolts of Indra. Garuda has very quick Intelligence and Wisdom, but is not arrogant and respects others.
He is an Honorable Deva, worthy of admiration. Garuda is most well known for affecting the development and advancement of success and professional status and increase income and wealth. Civil Servants, Police, Military or other Officals should carry and worship Garuda, as well as those who protect their nation or its Leaders.
The Garuda is excellent protection against ghosts and wicked spirits. Garuda eats Sambhavesi (a kind of phantom) as food and nourishment. In the Vedic Legends, Garuda is said to have one day found hardly any food, and so went off trying to catch Naga serpents, but Pra Narai (Vishnu) was afraid there would be trouble, because the Nagas reside under the Rule of Anandha Nakarach, the Naga King, a very powerful God. So Vishnu gave Garuda the permission to eat any Sambhavesi that were bothering the Human race, as his food.
The Garuda is also empowered to hunt down and banish any obstacles or negative energies within, opening up channels for success and happiness. Anyone aiming to take advantage will be prevented from completing their task.
