The list continues, naming four more of the eight great nāgas. The list of eight, in the purāṇas, usually runs: Ananta, Vāsuki, Takṣaka, Kārkoṭaka, Padma, Mahāpadma, Śaṅkha, and Kulika; and here it is reproduced almost exactly. Note that the names of the last three are names of treasures: padma, mahāpadma, and śaṅkha mean “lotus,” “great lotus,” and “conch,” and these are the names of the eight nidhis, “treasures,” of Kubera.
The combination of serpents and treasures is constant in Indian usage and is simply explained: serpents guard treasure; and anyone who has dug in an old place knew that a serpent lived there. Hence the nāgas, in this literature, are at once a danger and a riches; and both senses are present in this book. Let us add what deserves saying about the very custom of hanging serpents about the body, for Śiva has it too.
Śiva wears serpents on his neck and arms, discussed reading the Śaiva books of this collection. The difference is that with Śiva the serpents are companions, while with Garuḍa they are captives; and the same image means different things for the two. The Vaiṣṇava side points to this as a general rule for reading images: an object on a deity's body denotes a relation, and that relation must be known from the story, not guessed from appearance.
