Garuda’s connection in Ramayana
Garuda, the divine vehicle of Lord Vishnu, is known for his enmity with snakes. He is believed as the king of birds and is known for his loyalty and devotion to Lord Vishnu. In the epic war between Lord Rama and Ravana, Meghnada, the brother of Ravana, used a powerful weapon called the ‘Nagastra’ to capture Lord Ram and his brother Lakshman. The Nagastra tightly gripped the brothers, making it impossible for them to escape its deadly hold. However, as Garuda approached them, a miraculous transformation took place. The Nagastra started to loosen its grip, and the brothers were released from its clutches.
As Garuda drew closer, he lovingly stroked their faces with his wide wings. Instantly, their wounds vanished, and their faces regained their radiance. Not only did their physical injuries heal, but their splendor, majesty, intelligence, and courage also increased manifold.
It was as if Garuda’s touch infused them with divine energy and rejuvenated their spirits. Garuda, with his magnificent wings and majestic presence, symbolizes protection, strength, and divine intervention. In Hindu mythology, Garuda is often depicted as a half-man, half-eagle creature with golden feathers and a beak-like nose. He is believed to possess immense power and is considered the embodiment of righteousness and righteousness.
