Tibetan Snow Leopard Spirit
In Tibetan tradition the snow leopard is a sacred guardian of the high Himalayas, linked to the mountain and wilderness deities of Tibetan Buddhism as a spiritual protector of the highlands. Its solitary, elusive nature lends an aura of purity and spiritual insight, and deities are said to ride it or take its form. The belief reflects deep reverence for the snow leopard across the plateau.
