Dzi bead | Garuda
The Garuda Dzi bead is one of the most sought after Dzi beads, due to the fact that good quality ones are very rare. The Garuda is a large, legendary bird-like creature with eagle qualities in Hindu, Buddhist and Jain mythology. He is the mount (vahana) of the Hindu god Vishnu and often acts as a messenger between man and the gods.
Often seen as a protector, Garuda can aid one by flying above the storm, allowing us to see the whole picture or issue(s) we may be facing rather than a view from the ground where our vision may be clouded.
