What's the story in Gansu?

It is said that Lady Shangyuan is a disciple of the old gentleman of Taishang, and the second fairy after the Golden Mother of Guishan. She has been told the mystery of Tao since ancient times. When the Queen Mother of the West came down to earth, she often asked Mrs. Shangyuan to accompany her. I once asked Mrs. Shangyuan to give the real body of the Five Mountains to Emperor Wu, the flying symbol of the Five Emperors and Six Jia Ling. I also taught Sanmaojun the charm. The Queen Mother of the West said to San Maojun, "Lady Shangyuan is the mother of Sanqing Emperor, and she holds a high position in Shangyuan, leading ten jade girls. You can ask her the key to immortality. " According to the instructions of the queen mother, San Maojun asked Mrs. Shangyuan. Lady Shang Yuan ordered the servant girl Song to take out four ministers from the purple kit and give them to San Maojun. The Queen Mother of the West also ordered the maid to send a copy of Taixiao Tibetan Scripture. ?

Because of the kindness and kindness of the Queen Mother of the West, this character also influenced her youngest daughter, Mrs. Taizhen Wang. Mrs. Wang is a stunning beauty. At the age of sixteen or seventeen, she worked as an official for three days, in charge of Mount Tai in Dongyue. She often travels between Mount Tai and the sky, and sometimes lives in a cave in Mount Tai. The cave is located on a cliff more than 1000 feet above the ground. The cave is unfathomable. The palace is a cave, with tables and chairs made of marble, beds made of gold and treasures that have never been seen before. One of them is a piano. Whenever Mrs. Wang plays it, many birds fly from all directions and are fascinated. Once, she drove a white dragon around the world and met a county magistrate and Shi Jun, who was attacked by thieves and was seriously injured and dying. Mrs. Wang inquired about the situation and sympathized with his misfortune. She gave him a pill at once and saved his life. Mrs. Wang thought that He Junshi had a bright future, so she renamed him Ma Mingsheng and let him practice for several years. Later, Mrs. Wang asked him to learn from the immortal An Qisheng. After being taught the secret method of returning Anqi Shengjin liquid to Dan, Ma practiced hard for three years and finally became an immortal. ?

Primitive people's thinking in images depends on the perceptual picture of the world provided by feeling and perception, which is one of the psychological reasons for the formation of unconscious surreal imagination in mythology. Of course, any thinking starts from perceptual materials such as feeling, perception and representation, and is restricted by them. However, early humans did not have enough analytical and comprehensive ability to accurately and deeply distinguish and summarize various objects, events and phenomena directly observed in real life, thus accurately summarizing the essence of various things and phenomena. They can't distinguish themselves from nature, but spontaneously use the thinking method of "pushing things" and regard all kinds of natural things and natural forces as living beings and will entities like human beings. Therefore, the Queen Mother of the West, who is in charge of human disasters and five punishments, must be a strange image of "she is like a human being, but a leopard's tail and teeth are good at whistling and she is covered in Dai Sheng". For example, near Jingchuan County, not far from the east of Kongtong Mountain, the original stone statue of the Queen Mother of the West is exactly the same as that described in Shan Hai Jing, which looks a bit scary. Academic circles also have different views on the origin of this respect. A more scientific statement. The ancient eastern society was relatively developed, and entered the patriarchal society ahead of time, and elected Dong as the leader, while the western society was still in the matriarchal society, and elected the Western Queen Mother as the leader. As for animal models, most of them reflect people's fear of unconquerable people in hunting times. The tiger is king, the leopard is close to the tiger, and he is king among all animals, so he also lets his leader dominate the world. This psychological desire is an important social and historical significance of the myth of the Western Queen Mother. ?

However, ancient myths, like other folk stories, have been constantly changing according to people's ideology, emotional will and desire in the long history. For example, the image of Guanyin Bodhisattva changed from male to female in the spread of Buddhism, and even the gender changed. Because Guanyin's personality characteristics are kindness, helping the weak and restraining the strong, helping the poor and helping the poor, it is more reasonable to change to a woman, so no one blames it and everyone accepts it. The Queen Mother of the West is a fairy and is in charge of all women in the world. What she did reflected the beauty of the soul. Why can't her appearance and inner world be perfectly unified? In fact, since the Eastern Han Dynasty, the image of the Queen Mother of the West is no longer a "face with tiger teeth and leopard tail", but has become more beautiful than Guanyin Bodhisattva. The people of Jingchuan County, in view of Pingliang Kongtong Mountain as the birthplace of Taoism, have a quiet and elegant environment, which contains the philosophical thought of "inaction" of Taoism. In order to further promote the spirit of the Queen Mother of the West to suppress evil and promote good, a new Wang Mu Palace was built on the mountain, and a statue of the Queen Mother, which is a beautiful woman, was rebuilt, making it more kind and solemn. It has long been divorced from the animal model of the primitive flood era, and it is not as frivolous and charming as the dancer when Mu and Emperor Wu met, but a gentle and loving human mother.

According to modern people's thinking mode and concept consciousness, the Queen Mother of the West should have moved from Kunlun to the mainland. People don't want their relatives to live in the primitive wilderness forever. There is a clear reservoir behind Wang Mu Palace in Kongtong Mountain. Clear water is like a mirror under a clear sky. Why not call it Yaochi after several years? Every nation has its own culture and its own "roots". Whether it's Kongtong Mountain, Wang Mu Palace, Buddhism or Taoism, in the final analysis, it reflects a nation's belief in * * *. As long as we have this * * * * belief, then the descendants of the Chinese people living all over the world will unite people's hearts and build an immortal palace for the Queen Mother of the West on this basis, so that the mother of mankind will always be young! Is this not good?
