UDYAMI - उद्यमी
The Go-Getter
The Tiger
Warrior’s Spirit – Mughal rulers often compared themselves to tigers, seeing them as relentless fighters who never backed down from a challenge. Therefore, Udyami’s are represented by the tiger because like a tiger, Udyamis are very clever, fierce and enterprising.
Clever
Tigers have a relatively large brain size compared to their body size, and are very clever animals. Their intelligence fuels their highly observant skills, namely their keen sense of hearing, sight, and smell that they rely on to detect prey.
Fierce
Tigers are considered to be one of the toughest, and most powerful animals in the world. They have expert hunting techniques such as stalking and ambushing, that make them not only survive, but also thrive.
Enterprising
Tigers have a special ability to adapt to changing environments and situations, creating innovative, and ingenious new ways to catch their prey.
