Introduction To The Garuda :
Garuda is a gigantic bird of prey in Buddhism. They are also known as Suparna at times. This translates to "good wings, good wings." They, like the Nagas, mix the attributes of animals and sacred beings and are the lowest of the Devas. Garuda has rulers and towns, and some have the magical ability to turn into human shapes while dealing with humans.
How do you take care of your statues?
Place them at room temperature, avoiding direct sunlight.
Make sure that the area where your statue is placed is entirely free of moisture and dust.
Place it at the highest place on your altar after being consecrated by a Lama/monks. The best practice is to keep them covered inside a glass cabinet.
Do not use your bare hands or any objects with a rough surface to wipe the face. Directly touching objects with the bare hand can smudge the face, leaving scratches.
