This is a Warrior astride a Phoenix.  The Phoenix appears only when reason,  peace and prosperity prevail in the country, hiding itself at other times.  It glorifies a peaceful reign, and symbolizes sun and warmth for summer and harvest.  The benevolent Phoenix which won't injure living insects or tread upon living herbs, is very acceptable to the Buddists, who disapprove of the unnecessary taking of life.
