Jiang Ziya has finally become the source of light. What is the source of light?

Jiang Ziya has finally become the source of light. What is the source of light?

Little Liu Kan sealed the gods and spoke to everyone!

In the Romance of Gods, Jiang Ziya has no chance to become immortal, and he has no chance to become immortal, because he must die for the last time. Although Jiang Ziya died several times, the Buddha always sent twelve immortals to save Jiang Ziya.

And the original text also describes that Jiang Ziya was worshipped by Yao Tianjun, leaving only one soul and one soul.

This soul left Jiang Ziya's body and flew towards this deity.

At that time, it was the white sword of Qing Shen Fu who guarded the altar.

Bai Jian knew God's will, and he must not let Jiang Ziya into ecstasy, so he pushed Jiang Ziya's soul away. Later, Jiang Ziya's soul flew to Kunlun Mountain to ask the Buddha for help, and Jiang Ziya came back to life!

At that time, when Jiang Ziya left Kunlun Mountain, the Buddha told him himself that he had no chance to become an immortal in this life, and he could only enjoy the wealth on earth.

If Jiang Ziya becomes a god, he will definitely not be on earth, and he will not enjoy the wealth of the world. This is not to prove that the saints of the Buddha in the beginning can't speak correctly. Therefore, the Buddha in the early Yuan Dynasty must not regard Jiang Ziya as a god, and he must be saved when he dies!

Although Jiang Ziya can't be a god, many of us artificially put a lot of gods on Jiang Ziya, such as the master of all gods; It is said that Jiang Taigong is here and the gods are retreating!

Jiang Ziya's name also includes Liang God, Lantern God and Light God!

Today, Xiao Liu tells us about Jiang Ziya, the Lantern God and the Light God.

In this TV series, Jiang Ziya wanted to give himself the last throne, that is, Dongyue the Great, but was robbed by his original match Ma Shi. Later, Huang was late on purpose, so even the last throne was gone. But the Antarctic fairy told Jiang Ziya that the gods of the Yuan Dynasty remembered him as the God who made contributions to Zhou's crusade against the East, and named him the source of light.

Jiang Ziya was also very happy, and asked the Antarctic immortal, what is the source of light?

The Antarctic fairy replied, lantern head.

One second Jiang Ziya was as happy as a child, and the next he was pulling his face like that.

Originally, when Jiang Ziya ceded the throne to Huang, Xiao Liu admired Jiang Ziya very much, but at this moment, Xiao Liu really looked down on him. I am happy when I am old, but unhappy when I am young.

In fact, the god of lights and the god of light in Jiang Ziya basically mean the same thing, which means that when light appears, Jiang Ziya will appear.

There were no street lamps in ancient times, and there were no bright lights at night, so ancient people needed lanterns to walk at night.

Where lanterns are, light is there, and so is Jiang Ziya.

As the president of the gods, he suppressed evil spirits and helped people drive away evil spirits. This is a hardworking, upright and helpful god. I'm afraid no god is so hardworking.

Such a god deserves people's admiration and respect. He is with people at night and knows more about human suffering.

But such a god, such a busy and hard-working god, is always ignored. Even Jiang Ziya himself doesn't like such a god.

The gods that people worship and like to worship are those above, such as Yuanshi Tianzun, Taishang Laojun, Nuwa Empress, San Xiao Empress and God of Wealth Zhao Gongming.

Nu Wa Niangniang

People always forget to help them. With them is Jiang Ziya, an unknown and conscientious lamp god.

Other gods will get a lot of incense offerings from human beings, but Jiang Ziya's lantern god, people tend to ignore him, because he is powerless and unknown, people simply can't see his contribution, and think he is dispensable, let alone offering incense to him!

It is strange that Jiang Ziya can enjoy himself with such a busy little god who is unknown and has no incense and rights.

Jiang Ziya is one of the main characters in the Romance of Gods. From the very beginning, he was instructed by his master to assist two generations of Zhou kings (Zhou Wenwang and Zhou Wuwang) in the Lower Kunlun Mountains, and finally overthrew the cruel and heartless Shang Zhouwang, thus achieving the hegemony of the Zhou Dynasty for 800 years. It can be said that Jiang Ziya is the soul of novels. His divine power is limited, but his responsibility is great. He has a "whip" in his hand, which can punish the immortals. Although Jiang Ziya's personal strength is average, he has many fiends, such as Yang Jian, Nezha, Excavate, Huang Tianhua and others. Many big immortals are also his friends, such as the Antarctic immortals and Yunzhongzi.

Why do these great powers obey Jiang Ziya? Because Jiang Ziya represents heaven, his will is the will of heaven. Zhou Xing leads to Shang and Zhou decline. This is luck and cannot be changed. Even saints as noble as Buddha and Tianshi from the beginning can't change the operation of heaven. Jiang Ziya is a righteous man. Whoever doesn't listen to him is the enemy of heaven. When Han Xin was just a general, many senior generals refused to accept him. Han Xin said, I am not a commander, I am a commander. As long as you give me 10 obedient generals, I can command 1 10,000 troops. Han Xin is a general, so is Jiang Ziya.

Thus, according to legend, Jiang Ziya became the "God of Light" after being deified. What does this mean? It turns out that Jiang Ziya was a deity, but he didn't become a deity. It's a pity. At this time, Jiang Ziya's brother, Xian Weng from the South Pole, came down from the cloud and said, "I have given you a god on the order of my master, the Buddha." .

Jiang Ziya was very happy and said, OK, I don't know what to seal for me.

The Antarctic fairy said, the god of light source.

Hearing this, the Jiang Ziya is awesome. What is this for?

The Antarctic fairy said slowly, lantern head ~

Jiang Ziya: This. ...

It turned out to be the lantern god.

First of all, Lantern God

This plot originally came from the fortieth episode of the TV series "The Prince of Wu on the God List".

In front of this deity, Jiang Ziya is full of ambition. At the beginning of the yuan dynasty, the task of sealing gods was completed immediately, and the best position of sealing gods list was reserved for himself. Of course, he was also afraid that the throne would be taken away by others, so he issued an early warning to his eldest brother, the Antarctic fairy: "Is this position mine?"

The Antarctic immortal smoothed his beard and told Jiang Ziya meaningfully, "The sage is behind him, in front of him, but he exists outside. Not because of its selflessness? Therefore, it can be private. "

This sentence comes from Tao Te Ching. Later, its body means to retreat when it meets good things, and its body means to ignore bad things. Because of selflessness, I can achieve myself. This is a saint. Everyone can understand the meaning of this sentence, but in order to awaken Jiang Ziya and persuade him to be selfless and generous, Yuan Shikai won't forget him.

Sure enough, Huang's voice did not fall, and his soul flew up, shouting for titles.

Jiang Ziya immediately returned to the taste and immediately smiled: "I gave my position to my good brother."

As a result, Huang became the head of the Five Mountains, and was in charge of the apocalypse and benevolence of Mount Tai in Dongyue, also known as the Emperor of Dongyue.

What about Jiang Ziya?

You can't do it for nothing, can you?

A basket of beautiful words is not as safe as a candy.

In fact, it was impossible for Jiang Ziya to live in vain in the early Yuan Dynasty. In the battle to seal the gods, he beat his younger brother to the sky and the leader to the ground. This is not a simple level, but a generation of heroes. The man won't be as stingy as Xiang Yu, otherwise who will work for him?

The Antarctic fairy revealed the mystery: "Ziya, there is no place for you in the 365 paths of the true God, but you have a list of gods in your arms and a whip in your hand. Wherever you go, the true God will make way for you temporarily. " When you are in 100 years, at the end of your life, you can stay at the source of light in every festive festival. Wherever you go, you will shine and evil spirits will stay away. "

Jiang Ziya is still eating candied fruit, thinking that this must be a domineering god. He smiled and asked, What is the source of light?

The Antarctic fairy smiled and said, "This is just the head of a lantern pole ..."

To be fair, this screenwriter is very standard. Two folklores are used here. One is "the squire is here, and the gods are obedient (or" Jiang Taigong is here, forgive me "), and the other is" Lantern God ". The head of the lamp pole is the lamp god. What does this mean? Lanterns are hung with light ropes, such as branches, sticks and iron bars. The place where the light rope is tied is called the end of the lantern pole. Legend has it that on New Year's Eve, the gods returned to their places, and Jiang Ziya, who usually took over for the gods, had nowhere to go. People sympathize with him, and every household lights lanterns to keep him alive.

Second, discrimination.

And said it was folklore. Legend is also something that is not in the original. According to the original work, the plots of the above TV series can't stand scrutiny.

First of all, the scene doesn't match. The Antarctic fairy Weng appears more as the mascot of Kunlun Mountain, with few scenes, and it is even more impossible to appear in front of the gods. In the TV series, this man actually took all the shots of the burning lamp, and the burning lamp was directly deleted. I think King Wu is also at the scene of deification, which is also nonsense.

Secondly, the screenwriter, like ordinary people, made a mistake about the meaning of "deity" in this book. God is god, and ghosts and gods are gods. The living can only become immortals or die of old age, not gods. No one in the whole story is a living god. Therefore, Jiang Ziya will never be idle to find a good place for himself unless he commits suicide immediately.

Finally, there are already three magic lamps in the world of god worship, namely Du Xuandong magic lamp, Yuxu Palace Yuanshi magic lamp and Lingjiu Mountain magic lamp. Among them, the lamp under the lamp holder secretly went down the mountain to arouse evil spirits. Obviously, the priority should be given to the deity lanterns, so that professional people can do professional things.

What is worth spitting is the word "the source of light".

The original is a book written by ancient literati, and the dictionary is elegant and simple. The word "light" appears less than five times from beginning to end. Obviously, people don't attach great importance to it, let alone the so-called "X of XX".

In short, the more you read modern times, the more you make them up. Just keep this in mind when watching TV. The word "light source" fits this perfectly. However, although it is fabricated, the specific things it refers to are supported by folk customs and are not completely fabricated. In fact, the lantern god is called the lantern god. I really don't know what's the use of having a "light source". Maybe I want others to be ignorant.

Third, some supplements.

Legends of "squire here, immortals avoid it" abound, but the legend of Lantern God does not know where to spread, so far no such books have been found, and no similar records have been found in Mr. Li Qiao's monograph "Worship of Industry Gods in China".

China's Worship of Industrial Gods is a representative work in the fields of social history, cultural history and folklore in China, and it has become a bibliography of similar papers and monographs. This book makes a detailed textual research on the gods in various folk industries, among which the gods in The Romance of Gods is the most famous classic.

According to teacher Li Qiao's research, Jiang Taigong is considered as the founder in the following three industries:

1, vinegar brewing industry

In the old days, there were four famous kinds of vinegar in the world, one of which was Sichuan Baoning vinegar. Baoning Prefecture is now in Langzhong, Sichuan. During the Republic of China, there was a vinegar guild in Langzhong vinegar industry, and Jiang Ziya was regarded as the god of vinegar altar. There is a statue of Tai Gong on the floor of Huaguang, and there is a "Tai Guild" on the first day of the fourth lunar month every year, which is a grand event in the vinegar industry.

2. Aquatic fisheries

This is easy to understand. Before transshipment, Jiang Ziya lived in seclusion and fished by the Weishui River outside Xiqiao City. Soon in flying bear, King Wen fell asleep, Wei Shui visited Xian, and Jiang Ziya was nearly eighty years old, reaching the peak of his life.

Fishermen attended the meeting. Although they are in trouble, they imply a desire to get rich.

3. Fortune teller

This is a fortune-telling business.

This is easy to understand. In Gods, Jiang Ziya was born under the Buddha of the Yuan Dynasty in Kunlun Mountain. He is a man with a sense of morality, and money is easy to learn. More importantly, Jiang Ziya used to sell divination in Chao Ge to help Chao Ge people tell their fortune. He was called a psychic, and later made a great event of burning pipa essence, and was able to enter the big business court as an official.

God calculated that his promotion was worthy of what he had learned, so the postscript was just right.

China's worship of industry gods

Justice for heaven, the source of light. Is the embodiment of justice. His glorious deeds inspired future generations, so we should take the bright road, support justice, avoid crooked ways and help others.

The thing about the light source is a lie.

This remake of the TV series has some merits, but many parts are fiction. Not according to the original plot, too many modern elements have been added, and too many changes have been made according to ideas that no one knows.

There is also the name of the light source, which was very low in ancient China.

If I remember correctly, Jiang Ziya didn't keep this throne for himself, did he? In fact, he left himself the position of the Jade Emperor in the list of gods. How did he become the holy emperor of Mount Tai, Huang and Tian Qiren in Dongyue?

And although it has not been deified in mythology, my personal opinion is:

First, the position he left for himself was robbed, but he was a god, and even after that, he still held down God.

Second, I don't want to be a god. Everything is within his calculation. Being a god means having chains. What he wants is to be immortal. There is a difference between immortals and gods.

Looking back at the real history, if the myth is reflected by history, Jiang Ziya is not deified. Jiang Ziya is an atheist in history.
