《龙藏经》029-6 之 莲花金翅鸟-Padmagaruda，藏文题名又作Padma-khyung。
大鹏金翅鸟是三世诸佛智慧与方便的显现，密宗中任何忿怒本尊的顶上空中都飞翔有大鹏金翅鸟，它嘴中含蛇，表示遣除末法时期佛法的一切违缘，降伏一切的魔障。本师释迦牟尼佛在印度金刚座证道时所具的六种庄严中，顶饰庄严即是此大鹏金翅鸟，象征着弘法利生事业的胜利。此外，大鹏金翅鸟还包含着密宗息、增、怀、诛四事业的深广含义，同时也代表三世诸佛身口意的功德。大鹏金翅鸟可以作为上师、本尊来祈祷，也可作为护法空行来供养。（以上摘自“龘藏”）

Historically, from classical Indian mythology, Garuda is the king of birds. In Tantric Buddhism, Garuda is yet another form in which various buddhas arise for the purpose of removing disease and injury caused by nagas and poisoning. Metaphorically the worst 'poisons' are desire, hatred and ignorance. Various forms of Garuda are found in both the Nyingma and Sarma traditions. The Chakrasamvara and Kalachakra Tantras of the Sarma tradition are the main sources for the various lineages of Tantric Buddhist practice. The Bon religion has a similar bird deity known as a 'kyung'.
