Sima Qian's "Chen Shi Family" mentions "cutting down the unjustified way and punishing the violent Qin", explaining the reason for the destruction of Qin. However, looking back at "The Romance of the Gods", the description of the more absurd and unscrupulous King of Shang seems to have originated from the nine-tailed demon fox infiltrating Chaoge City.
Why did the nine-tailed fox sneak into the city of songs?The cause is a poem on the pink wall of Nuwa Palace. When the king of Shang was worshipping in Nuwa's palace, he wrote a poem that teased Nuwa. This angered Nuwa, who wanted to punish the king of Shang. However, Nuwa's plan was blocked by two red lights.
The first paragraph of the article shows the apparent reason for the Great War of the Gods, that is, the blasphemy of Nuwa Shengming by the King of Shang. However, this large-scale battle involves multiple gods, not just Nuwa, so it is clear that the blasphemy against Nuwa is only a superficial reason.
These two red rays of light were actually emitted by Yin Jiao and Yin Hong, the sons of the king of Shang. Although the Shang kings depicted in the Romance of the Gods belong to the descendants of ancient mythology, Yin Jiao and Yin Hong are the future gods, and their power blocks Nuwa's retribution. Nuwa calculated the calamity and found that Yin Shang still had a fate of twenty-eight years. So, she sent the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb to confuse the king of Shang.
Nuwa's purpose is to vent her anger and take revenge. She knew that if she gave the Shang King retribution in this life, she would violate the calamity, and she would also bear the cause and effect. Therefore, sending out the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb can not only comply with the calamity, but also vent anger, killing two birds with one stone.
Further elaborated, the objective reason for the destruction of the gods was calamity. The teachings are on the side of adapting to the calamity, so this point is constantly emphasized.
Hongjun Patriarch does not exist in orthodox Taoist mythology. However, in the Romance of the Gods, his status is extremely lofty. His **Yuan Shi Tianzun, Taishang Laojun and Tongtian Sect Master are behind the scenes that triggered the War of the Gods**. The exposition founded by Yuan Shi Tianzun pursues the concept of elite education and cultivates talented people. On the other hand, the Interception Sect advocates the education of the common people, and everyone can join the religion regardless of whether they are noble or not.
At first, there was no peace between the two religions, but as the number of disciples increased, the conflict between exposition and rejection gradually became apparent. Among the Eight Hundred Princes, the two factions of disciples wrestled with each other, and once the conflict broke out, the consequences would be unimaginable.
In the final analysis, the War of the Gods was a life-and-death struggle between the two concepts of exposition and interception. The extermination of the Shang is only the fuse, and the real reason is that the concept of exposition replaces the interception of the teaching, and it is the exposition of the religion to destroy the interception of the religion.
This article reveals the truth behind the War of the Gods: in addition to the blasphemy of Nuwa by the Shang King, the deeper reason lies in the confrontation between the two mythological concepts, the calamity and the competition between the power of the gods.
Through this analysis, we can better understand the root cause of the Great War of the Gods, and understand why the gods joined forces to destroy the Shang King.
The myth of the Great War of the Gods has always been an important part of Chinese culture. The above article has made an in-depth interpretation of the superficial, objective and deep reasons for the destruction of merchants in the War of the Gods, which makes people re-examine the connotation and deep meaning of this legendary story.
First of all, the author sorted out the superficial reasons for the Great War of the Gods. The desecration of Nuwa Shengming by the Shang King was considered to be the direct trigger for the Great War of the Gods, however, the forces and roles involved in this massive battle were much more than that. The author points out that this is only a superficial reason, and it is only the tip of the iceberg of the War of the Gods, not the whole story.
Secondly, the article ** the objective reasons for the war of the gods. The catastrophe is attributed to the objective reason why the gods joined forces to destroy the Shang, in order to explain the sense of fate and fate entanglement behind the disaster. This fatalistic factor plays a key role in mythology, highlighting the intertwined entanglement between gods and humans, fate and calamity.
Finally, the article delves into the deep reasons for the Great War of the Gods. The conflict between the two different sectarian philosophies, exposition and rejection, is seen as the root cause of the extinction of the Shang dynasty. The author skillfully sublimates the War of the Gods from a mere legendary adventure story to a symbol of the clash of ideas and values. This cultural and religious confrontation gives the story more depth and substance.
This article analyzing the Great War of the Gods made me reacquaint myself with this ancient myth.
