Chang Tao-Ling is depicted here with an air of wisdom and authority, exuding a sense of spiritual connection to his surroundings. Dressed in traditional Chinese robes adorned with intricate decorative patterns, he emanates a profound sense of tranquility and inner strength. Notably, Chang Tao-Ling is often associated with riding a tiger—a symbol that represents power and courage in Chinese mythology.
