  Let $M=G/K$ be a Hermitian symmetric space of noncompact type. We provide a
way of constructing $K$-equivariant embeddings from $M$ to its tangent space
$T_oM$ at the origin by using the polarity of the $K$-action. As an
application, we reconstruct the $K$-equivariant holomorphic embedding so called
the Harish-Chandra realization and the $K$-equivariant symplectomorphism
constructed by Di Scala-Loi and Roos under appropriate identifications of
spaces. Moreover, we characterize the holomorphic/symplectic embedding of $M$
by means of the polarity of the $K$-action. Furthermore, we show a special
class of totally geodesic submanifolds in $M$ is realized as either linear
subspaces or bounded domains of linear subspaces in $T_oM$ by the
$K$-equivariant embeddings. We also construct a $K$-equivariant
holomorphic/symplectic embedding of an open dense subset of the compact dual
$M^*$ into its tangent space at the origin as a dual of the
holomorphic/symplectic embedding of $M$.
