    The animals demonstrated in the National Emblem are horse, bull, elephant, and lion. They are thought to symbolize the four periods of Gautam Buddha’s life.

    The elephant denotes Buddha’s outset (the dream of a white elephant entering her womb dreamt by Buddha’s mother at the time of Buddha’s conception).

    The bull symbolizes the Zodiac sign of Buddha- Taurus.

    The horse signifies Buddha’s horse which he rode at the time of departing from the citadel.

    The lion indicates enlightenment.
