Four mythical animals living in harmony are extremely common in Tibetan Buddhist monasteries and they are called auspicious figures. Four mythical animals living in harmony are also known as " four auspicious mythical animals", from the bottom to the top of the bronze statue are elephant, monkey, mountain rabbit and partridge birds, symbolizing respect for the elderly, love for children and peaceful coexistence.
The story is derived from the biography of Shakyamuni, which tells the story of four animals living in harmony. According to legend, during the ancient Indian state of Polonais, Bhagavate Sakyamuni incarnated as a partridge bird and inhabited the Kashi Forest. At that time, there was a monkey, an elephant and a mountain hare living in the forest, who lived in harmony, respected and loved each other, and lived a peaceful and happy life. While it symbolizes unity and harmony, local tranquility, longevity and prosperity, and auspicious happiness, it also expresses the good wishes of man and nature to live in harmony and coexist.
