The origin of grandma Taishan

The origin of Grandma Taishan: Bi Xia is a jade girl sent by the Yellow Emperor, Huashan jade girl, and the daughter of Shi, a civilian girl in Han Dynasty.

1. Bi Xia Yuan Jun is a jade girl sent by the Yellow Emperor.

According to the records in "Examination of Jade Girl" and "The Story of Yaochi", when the Yellow Emperor built Daiyue Temple, he sent seven girls, Yun Guan Yuyi, to Mount Tai, the first mountain in the world, to meet the real Kunxi. Jade Girl was a Taoist among the seven girls. "Jade Girl Examination" Li E's "Chi Yaoji" said: "The emperor wants to build the Daiyue Temple, send seven women, crown them with feathers, and burn them to welcome the real people in Kunxi. Gai Yunv is one of the seven women. She is a Taoist. "

Second, for Huashan herself.

But-as the goddess of Mount Tai, she is the daughter of Mount Tai. According to the outline of Ming Wang's Biography of the Jade Girl: "The jade girl on Mount Tai is also a fairy. See the Yellow Emperor at the beginning, and see the Han Emperor at the beginning. "

The third is the history of Han civilians.

According to Yu Nv Juan, when Emperor Han Ming was emperor, the wife of scholar Shishoudao in Fengfu County, Sun Ningfu, Niuzhou was named Jin. On March 18th, seven years in the Central Plains, Jia gave birth to a girl named yeyu. At the age of three, I understood human relations, and at the age of seven, I learned the law and tasted the Queen Mother of the West. When I was fourteen years old, I suddenly felt that my mother had taught me that I was going to the mountain, so I got Cao Xian's long finger and went to the Huanghua Cave in Sky Mountain for repair. The sky covers Mount Tai, and the cave is also a stone house.

There is a pool on the top of the mountain, which is a famous jade girl pool; Next to it is a stone statue of a jade girl. It can be seen that there was a story of the goddess Taishan in the Han and Jin Dynasties. In the Han dynasty, people also carved a stone statue of the goddess on the top of Mount Tai, and built a jade girl pool on the top of Mount Tai to show their worship. During the Five Dynasties, the palace collapsed, the stone statue fell to the ground, the image of the golden boy was eroded, and the jade girl became a jade girl pool in Ding Yue of Mount Tai.

believe

In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, due to the increasing influence of Grandma Taishan, the temples dedicated to Yuan Jun also expanded from Taishan to all parts of the country, and the incense was growing, and the belief in it spread all over the world. People respect Yuan Jun of Bi Xia for two reasons: First, it is inseparable from Yuan Jun's duties.

In the twenty-first year of Wanli in Ming Dynasty (1593), Wang Xijue recorded in the Monument to Dongyue Palace: "The poor wish to be rich, the sick wish to be safe, the tiller wishes to be old, Jia wishes to rest, the living wishes to be old, the childless wishes to be heirs, the sons wish to be close, and the relatives wish to be thick, but not harmonious." It can be seen that grandma Taishan is simply responsive and omnipotent at the psychological level of the people.

Secondly, Bi Xia Yuan Jun, as an approachable, amiable and charitable goddess, makes the working people feel more cordial, and thus trusts her more and more, becoming a loving mother and virgin in people's minds. Bi Xia Yuan Jun's birthday is on March 15 of the lunar calendar every year, and pilgrims come here to worship and celebrate.
