Note that here comes a change: serpents pass from ornaments into servants. Two hold fans, the rest sevyamāna, “serve”; and it is said mudā-anvitam, “filled with joy.” That is, the picture is no longer of battle or capture, but of a court: the lord sits, and around him stand attendants with fans.
This shift, to my mind, deserves attention and explains this whole class of image. The enemy turned servant is, in Indian literature, the constant outcome: the defeated is not destroyed, but kept close. The Vaiṣṇava side stands on this especially, and has many stories for it.
Kāliya, the serpent who poisoned the Yamunā, was not killed but banished, and the mark of the footsteps remained on his heads, by which Garuḍa will not touch him (Bhāgavatam 10.16). Bali, who took heaven, was not destroyed but made a doorkeeper, and the Lord remained at his door. Hence its own rule is stated thus: it is not the one who destroys who wins, but the one who takes to himself; and Garuḍa with fans made of yesterday's enemies is a picture of exactly this.
And the word mudā-anvitam, “filled with joy,” is not ornament here: the joy is ascribed not to victory, but to a state in which no one hostile remains nearby.
