| - Hayagriva is a horse-headed deity present in Hinduism and Buddhism. In Hinduism, Hayagriva is an avatar form of Vishnu, as described in the Bhagavata Purana, representing knowledge and wisdom. Various legends surround Hayagriva: In some sources he is a white horse who pulls the sun into the sky every morning. In others, such as the great epic Tārakā-battle, Vishnu appeared as a ferocious warrior called Hayagriva when the gods were under attack from the dānava’s demons. In Tibetan Buddhism, Hayagriva is the wrathful Chenrezig or Avalokiteshara, the deity of compassion. He is a Dharmapala, and one of the eight main dharmapalas, alongside Mahakala, Yama, Yamantaka, Vaisravana, Palden Lhamo, Tshangspa Dkaro, and Begste. In Japanese Buddhism, he is called Bato Kannon, the horse headed aspect of Kannon Bodhisattva (Avalokitesvara) who protects those who are reborn in the animal realm. Though present within both Hinduism and Buddhism, Hayagriva embodies distinctively different aspects and mythology between the two religions, and should be considered as separate entities.
