With the completion of Wuhan Huoshenshan and Leishenshan, in addition to supervising the work online, everyone also turned into a design expert and drew various logos for the two emergency hospitals. Among them, Leishenshan Fire and fire are the core elements. So, do the ancient gods of fire and thunder in the Book of Mountains and Seas have the supreme power to exorcise evil and epidemics?
Regarding the meaning of the Huoshenshan logo, many netizens have quite good explanations, and a Yixue enthusiast also lamented the country’s emphasis on traditional culture and gave his own unique insights:
The circular shape of the outer ring adopts the pattern of innate Bagua to bless energy. The gourd collects evil spirits, the large circle is gold, the heart is fire, and the fire power is gold to overcome evil spirits. The gourd lines are connected to concentrate the energy of the fire and serve as the talisman's gall bladder. There is a mountain beside the mouth of the gourd, and the gourd below. The cross represents disease and evil, which are completely suppressed in the gourd. The gourd collects the evil. The mountain is Gen Gua, and the end is the mountain that suppresses evil.
As for the logo of Thunder God Mountain, some netizens explained its design idea this way: the outer circle is shield-shaped, which means defense and immunity, symbolizing immunity from all evil. The word "Thunder" in the middle is a pseudo shape, and the top It is two thunder and lightning, with a shield field cross underneath, symbolizing that thunder suppresses disease and evil within it. The lotus at the bottom takes the meaning of Avalokitesvara's compassion and salvation, and disasters can be eliminated under the protection of Buddhism.
In fact, no matter how it is explained, everyone has such a beautiful hope in their hearts, that is, when the country is in crisis, they believe that miracles will always appear, and the unique images from traditional culture add to it. A touch of ancient mythology.
So, why use these two names? Is it really a "fire virus or SARS"?
Everyone may be familiar with the name of the Fire God Zhu Rong, but few people know that he is indeed closely related to the Chu people. Judging from the lineage in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", Zhu Rong has two different life experiences. One is a descendant of Zhuan Xu, and the other is a descendant of Emperor Yan. So which statement is more reliable?
However, judging from the records in later history books, it is more supported that Zhu Rong came from Zhuanxu's lineage. According to "Historical Records", the Chu people traced their ancestors back to Zhuanxu Gaoyang, and an incident from "Zuo Zhuan" once again confirmed that Zhu Rong was the ancestor of the Chu people. Zhu Rong sent troops to destroy Kui.
In fact, we should know that the so-called "Zhu Rong is the God of Fire" does not refer to the kind of god who controls the divine fire that burns the world. The title "Zhu Rong" was mainly derived from the observation of the big Mars to formulate The "Fire" of the Fire Calendar. But later, people had more hopes for the responsibilities of the God of Fire. They expected that open fire could drive away diseases. In fact, this view is very similar to what we modern people understand as high-temperature disinfection. p>
The God of Thunder also has two different images in "The Book of Mountains and Seas". One is the God of Thunder in Leize. The other god of thunder, to be precise, should be called the thunder beast. It appeared on Liubo Mountain in the East China Sea. It was a mythical beast similar to an ox. The most striking feature was that it had only one leg. It was finally made into a war drum by the Yellow Emperor. < /p>
Therefore, if you look at the image alone, it is obvious that Lei Ze is more like the God of Thunder, because he not only has the standard appearance of the ancient god, that is, a human head and a dragon (snake) body, but also the special location of Lei Ze, It also reveals the true identity of the God of Thunder, which is most likely related to Fuxi.
Because, in "Hainei Dong Jing", Guo Pu quoted from "He Tu": "The great deeds are in Lei Ze, and Hua Xu followed them. In the myth of birth "Fuxi", the Hua Xu family gave birth to Fuxi because they stepped on the footsteps of adults in Leize. Does this mean that Fuxi's father may be the God of Thunder?
In the eyes of Chu people, the God of Thunder and the God of Thunder The God of Fire is equally important. For example, "Yun Zhongjun" in the "Nine Songs" of Chu Ci is actually a piece of music praising the God of Thunder. It is second only to the chapter "East Emperor Taiyi" which worships the main god. This shows that its influence among the pre-Qin and Chu people Importance in the belief system
But the God of Thunder here has little to do with Fuxi. The God of Thunder in Chu Ci is a god named "Fenglong" (also called Pingyi). He is not only He is the god of thunder and the master of clouds.
In fact, the principles of thunder and fire to drive away evil spirits and diseases are similar. They are both the most destructive mysterious forces in nature, and therefore they are the nemesis of all evil spirits and diseases. .
Finally, I wish the epidemic to subside and the country and the people to be safe!
