The Yali is a captivating mythical creature that amalgamates the attributes of an elephant, lion, and snake, resulting in a symbol of immense strength and ferocity. The Yali encompasses the robust might of an elephant, the fierce agility of a lion, and the awe-inducing aura of a snake. Its iconography showcases a gracefully contoured body reminiscent of a cat, while its head boasts the visage of a lion, complete with elephantine tusks (gaja), and its tail trails off into a serpentine form.
In some depictions, the Yali is perched atop the back of a Makara, a mythical creature often linked with Budha (Mercury). This captivating fusion of nature's formidable elements signifies the Yali's awe-inspiring presence.
