<P> The actual Sarnath capital features four Asiatic lions standing back to back , symbolizing power , courage , confidence and pride , mounted on a circular base . At the bottom is a horse and a bull , and at its centre is a wheel ( Dharma chakra ) . The abacus is girded with a frieze of sculptures in high relief of The Lion of the North , The Horse of the West , The Bull of the South and The Elephant of the East , separated by intervening wheels , over a lotus in full bloom , exemplifying the fountainhead of life and creative inspiration . Carved from a single block of sandstone , the polished capital is crowned by the Wheel of the Law ( Dharma Chakra ) . </P>
