Legend has it that the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month is the day to welcome the Jade Emperor to earth. What did the Jade Emperor do on this day?
So, why did he come to earth on this day? The reason is that on the 23rd or 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, the Kitchen God reported to the Jade Emperor what every household in the world had done in the past year, explaining in detail what is good and what is evil. After grasping the situation, the Jade Emperor responded quickly, so he came to the world on the 25th to deal with the report of Kitchen God.
It is said that the Jade Emperor will first verify the situation reported by the Kitchen God, and then reward the good and punish the evil. For those who accumulate virtue and do good deeds, make them live longer; For those who commit evil deeds, life expectancy will be shortened by 300 days or even longer in severe cases, 100 days in lighter cases and 3 days in the lightest cases. In this way, the Jade Emperor guided the people to do evil and good. Therefore, on this day, people will put on incense tables and respectfully wait for the decision of the Jade Emperor.
However, it is worth adding that this great god did not exist at first, but developed from the gods of ancient times. At first, the ancestors worshipped heaven and thought that there was a supreme God who arranged everything on earth, thus forming their beliefs in "heaven", "God" and "God of heaven".
Taoism was formed in the Han Dynasty, and the gods people believed in joined the image characteristics of Taoist "Heaven Emperor", thus forming the Jade Emperor that people later became familiar with.
Summary: The Jade Emperor Taoism believes that the Jade Emperor has the supreme divine right. He not only commands the gods of heaven, earth and human beings, but also manages the ups and downs of all things in the universe.
All evil will be rewarded in the end. I think it can be used in this. People always say "God has eyes", which may be the reason! Taoism is a local religion in China, with "Tao" as its highest belief, Buddha as its ancestor, Huangdi as its ancestor and Laozi as its ancestor.
