Why do temples use quadruped dragon totems?
However, because the dragon has a special symbolic significance in China and is a typical representative of secular power, generally only the royal family and nobles can use objects and decorations with dragons. As a special concern for religion, temples are allowed to have dragon columns, but their specifications have special restrictions. Five claw dragon is the highest level. Since the Yuan Dynasty, only the royal family can use the shape of the dragon with five claws, while the folk can only use the pattern of the dragon with three claws or four claws. Some people use five-claw dragons to decorate utensils and so on, which is illegal. In the Qing Dynasty, only emperors could use five-claw dragons, while princes and Beizi could only use four-claw and three-claw dragons. However, due to the special position and significance of dragons in Buddhism, they could not be used, so the ancient emperor allowed temples to have dragon totems, but not five-claw dragons. It is already a high specification to use a four-claw dragon.
