In 2001 while traveling in East Asia, Greg found himself in Angkor Wat, Cambodia. Angkor Wat is a very spiritual place full of temples and this is one of the statues that he purchased.

Garuda (Sanskrit: ग ड़ Garuḍa; Pāli: ग ळ title="Hindu mythology">Hindu, Buddhist and Jain mythology. He is variously the vehicle mount (vahana) of the Hindu god, a dharma-protector and Astasena in Buddhism, and the Yaksha of the Jain Tirthankara Shantinatha.

Garuda is described as the king of birds and a kite-like figure. He is shown either in zoomorphic form (giant bird with partially open wings) or an anthropomorphic form (man with wings and some bird features). Garuda is generally a protector with power to swiftly go anywhere, ever watchful and an enemy of the serpent. He is also known as Tarkshya and Vynateya.

Garuda is a part of state insignia in India, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia and Indonesia. The Indonesian official coat of arms is centered on the Garuda. The national emblem of Indonesia is called Garuda Pancasila.
