The Qilin 麒麟 (pronounced chee leen) is a sacred beast in Chinese mythology known for its gentle nature, divine origins, and role as a harbinger of peace and virtue. Often depicted with a deer-like body, dragon-like scales, and flaming aura, it embodies righteousness and appears only during the reign of a wise ruler or the birth of a sage. Unlike fierce mythical creatures, the Qilin never harms the innocent — it walks without crushing grass and punishes only the wicked. As a powerful symbol of prosperity, moral purity, and heavenly approval, the Qilin stands among the most revered auspicious creatures in Chinese tradition.
