"Lion of Fu" Painting

Lion of Fu or Lion of Budha This lion-like creature worshiped as a Buddhist guardian and protector, also a symbol of success in new ventures, is guarding the entrance to the Palace of the Forbidden City and in countless temples and pagodas, from China, Japan, Tibet, India, Burma , they are practically found throughout Southeast Asia. The tradition of a guardian lion is millenarian, these Lions of Fu or also called, Lions of Buddha, with a strange appearance a little terrifying, are powerful mythical animals that have their origin in the Buddhist tradition and that are quite widespread in the East, as Emblems of value and energy, indispensable complements of wisdom. The pairs of Fu lions are usually found sexed, so in the couple that keeps the sacred entrance of an enclosure we differentiate the male's female because it holds an orb under its paw, while the female a calf. In fact, each one of them has different powers and attributes. In the case of the male, the sphere under its claws, is composed of hexagons (six sides) like the flower of life and symbolizes knowledge. That is why he is known as the guardian of knowledge.
