The national emblem of the Government of India is the symbol of peace and goodwill to
the world. It was the royal insignia of the Emperor Ashoka. It was taken from the pillar at
Sarnath. The pillar was primarily intended to commemorate the great wheel with 24
Spokes. The four animals carved in relief in the abacus of the wheel- the elephant,
horse, bull and Lion symbolise the four quarters of the universe. The boldly designed
finally proportioned and well conceptualised architecture draws the admiration of the
beholder and recalls the first Sermon by Lord Buddha at Sarnath. A group of four lions
surmount the Sarnath capital, each facing the Cardinal direction. The pose of their limbs
and tense muscular anatomy speak of the imagination of an accomplished master
craftsman. Their faces and free flowing manes the bold contours of their rounded
figures their subtle modelling in relief manifest the unerring the confident hand of
master artists of the Mauryan Court.
