Big Mthyical Data For Creatures Acquired From Google.com

1. Indian Mythical Creatures II
My earlier post “Indian Mythical Creatures” stated the
similarities between the mythical beings of India and that of
the western countries. Now I have found more similarities.
These mythical beings are very commonly seen but we
ignore them. Hollywood filmmakers still use these creatures
in movies and hence they are part of the Popular Culture just
like ware-wolf and vampires and witches. These are Griffin,
Sphinx, dragons etc. They also had Indian counterparts as
well. But as we have not preserved and presented them in
movies properly these creatures and unknown. The
European creatures and their Indian counterparts are as
follows:
Griffin(European):- Griffins are partly eagle and partly lion
with body of lion but wings and head of an eagle. These
creatures were and still are used in emblems, coat of arms
of European countries and also in stories and movies like
Harry Potter series.

2. Sharabha [शरभ ]:- This Indian counterpart of Griffin is
mentioned in the Hindu epic of Mahabharata and many other
texts. This creature is described as a lion with wings of an
eagle and sometimes also said that it had a face of an
elephant, there are variations depending upon different texts,
drawings & sculptures.
In a text it is mentioned that when Narsimha, the
4th
avatar/incarnation of Hindu god Lord Vishnu was raged
and not in control, Hindu god Shiva took the form of
Sharabha to calm him.
In Mahabharata, it says a dog transformed into a tiger, then
elephant, lion and finally a sharabha with help of a sage.

3. If ancient Indians were advanced then this could be a
genetic engineering and sharabha could be a chimera.
Sharabha was used by many kingdoms and empires in their
emblems. Presently it exists in seals, emblems and logos of
Karnataka State and Mysore University.
Two headed Eagle:- The two headed eagle was used as
the emblem of many Empires including Holy Roman Empire
and Russian Empire. It is still used in emblems and coat of
arms of Russian Federation and many European countries.

4. Gandaberunda:- This is the Indian version of the above
bird. With the same description it was used in emblems of
many Indian nations like Mysore state, Vijaynagara Empire
etc. It is still used in Karnataka state seal. I had seen the bird
design inside Mangeshi Temple, Goa. That time I thought it
might be there because of Portuguese influence. But later
realized that it was mentioned in Hindu scriptures as well.
When Lord Shiva took the form of sharabha to calm down
Narsimha, the Narsimha took form of this bird. Hence the
bird is symbol of the Hindu god.

5. Sphinx:- Everyone knows about the Egyptian sphinx who is
created to guard the treasures in the tombs of kings inside
pyramid. But it had European, Persian and Indian
counterparts as well. The Indian sphinx is said to be the
guard of Hindu temples and prevent evil from entering
temples. Usually it is at the entrance of the temple.
Sometimes it is also shown guarding the Shiva-linga inside
the temple. In short, its work is to guard important things.

6. Egyptian Sphinx
European Sphinx
I know where you are looking at

7. Persian Sphinx
Indian Sphinx

8. Dragons:- Unlike Europeans and East Asians like Chinese
and Japanese, Indian dragons are not very popular but it is
said that Vrita – a demon who was killed by Indra the king of
heaven was a dragon like creature. Also it is said that in
ancient world(India) snakes had bat like wings.
Co-incidentally Chinese refer their dragons as ‘snakes with
wings’. So it might be a possibility that they were same
creatures.
