Searching for "鵬" turned up nothing.

It was copied, with slight changes, from my blog article "How the Hindu Bird God Garuda Came to Appear in Journey to the West." The original passage reads: "The Ming dynasty examples suggest Garuda was considered a common element of the Buddha’s enlightenment torana. The bird god is in effect a guardian of the faith who watches over the world from an exalted position high atop the Buddha’s throne."

And can you show that these sources are themselves not based on the previous version of this article stating that it is a "she"? The reason I ask is because the Anthony C. Yu (2012) translation calls it "he/him" (pp. 250-51, for example).Tag: Undo
