In Indian Buddhist mythology, the guardian kings of the four firections dwell in the upper slopes of Mount Meru. In a japanese Buddhist temple, the guardian kings are placed on an elaborate platform representing Mont Meru. The guardian of the West is displayed, depicted as a warrior wearing a armor. He has his arm raised, which once held a weapon. He stands on a demon, a symbol of evil.
