Both the dragon and tiger are symbols of Chinese Buddhism, with the tiger leaping straight ahead to bulldoze through its opponents, while the dragon is more revered for its patience and wisdom, from which it then derives fighting power. Since neither is able to overcome the other, these royal beasts represent a balance of power, "hard" and "soft" styles that come together to form a harmony between Yin and Yang. They can also be seen as the Dragon representing Spirit/Heaven, and the Tiger representing Matter/Earth.
