Dongwanggong
Dongwanggong, also known as “Mukong” or “East China Emperor”, is a god of Taoism together with Xiwangmu. Its origin can be traced back to the Warring States period, when Chu believed in the god “Donghuang Taiyi”, also known as “Dongjun”, that is, the deified sun god (Sun Xingjun), which was the previous incarnation of Dongwanggong.
Dongwanggong word, first seen in Jin Ge Hong “Pillow Book”, the book called the Fusang Emperor, the text says: “Yuan Shi Jun after a hijacking is a Shi Taiyuan mother, born of the Emperor’s thirteen head, the rule of 36,000 years old, the book for the Fusang Emperor Dongwanggong, the name of the Yen Yang father Fusang Emperor, living in the Bimei.” The “Immortal Biography” says that he was “crowned with the crown of three dimensions and dressed in nine-colored cloudy haze, and was also known as the Jade Emperor.” The “True Spiritual Position Yip Diagram” places him on the left side of the upper Qing Dynasty, with the name Tai Wei Dongxia Fusang Danlin Daidi Shang Daojun. It shows its evolution from the Sun God.
There are many records of the origin of the Eastern King Gong, and the Book of Pillows says that he was born to Yuan Shi Tian Zun and the Holy Mother of Tai Yuan. The Book of the Pillow says that he was born to Yuan Shi Tian Zun and Tai Yuan Sheng Mu. The Legend of the Immortals also says that he was the first of all things and the source of the energy of Qing Yang. Volume 1 of “Youyang Miscellany Chopping Block – The Preliminary Collection” and Volume 1 of “The Complete Biography of the Immortals” both claimed that he was Ni, An Junming, and that he was born on the top of Bimei, in the ruins of Cangling.
After the founding of Taoism, Dong Wanggong was incorporated into the divine lineage, claiming that he was the master of Yanghe qi, and that he was in charge of the east, and he was also known as Wanggong. With the Golden Mother are quite quality Taixuan, Yushin mystery, in the eastern ding-dong, divided by the dao mellow essence of the gas and the formation, and the Queen Mother of the West, the common management of the two qi and nurture heaven and earth, Taojun all things, where the sky, the world, the world of three, the ten, men who have been immortalized by the Taoists are all in charge of it.
Dust Outside Records“ said with the ”Biography of Immortals” slightly the same, said the East King Gong live in the mountains of the Fangzhu, and said the Fangzhu mountain in the East within the plum, its all the Secretary of the thirty-five, so the record of the heavenly people asked about the crime and happiness, the emperor for the big Secretary of the President. The mountain has Donghua Terrace, the emperor often dingmao day on the platform four look to learn the character of the road.
Where the immortal has nine products, one said nine days true emperor, two days three days true emperor, three said Taishang real people, four said flying real people, five said the spirit of the immortal, six said real people, seven said the spirit of the people, eight said the flying fairy, nine said the immortal.
Where this product, the time of ascending to the immortal way, you have to first worship the wood public (East Wanggong), after visiting the Golden Mother (Queen Mother of the West), and only after that to ascend into the nine heavens, into the reference to the three Qing dynasty, worship Tai Shang and view of the beginning of the world. Therefore, in the early Han Dynasty, there was a children’s ballad that said: “Wearing a green skirt, enter the Heavenly Gate, greet the Golden Mother, worship the Wooden Duke.”
None of the people knew about it, but Zifang went to see it and said, “This is the child of the Duke of Dongwang.” Claimed that once upon a time Yuan Shi Tian Zun told the ten heavenly beings, “I since the creation of the word Chaos, the birth of two instruments, the service of yin and yang, began to seal the Emperor Yuan Jun. Since the East China Fusang great emperor Yang, began to seal the Emperor Yuanjun.
Since the East China Fusang large and other prismatic amount of water and fire, fixed leveling of the number of robberies, in the first year of the Emperor, Taishang in the Yuqing Qiongfang Jinque on the Palace of the Emperor’s Treasure Scripture Hua Tuyu know-how, so that after the transmission of learning the jade name of the people with the true.” Therefore, the “Xuanzheng” cloud: “Donghua not secret in the real secret is also.”
The Purple Mansion is the place where the Emperor Donghua schools his works. During the Qin and Han dynasties, it was rumored that there were three islands in the sea, and ten continents were listed among them: three continents on the upper island, Penglai, Fangzhang, Yingzhou; three continents on the middle island, Meirong, Langyuan, Yaochi; three continents on the lower island, Chicheng, Xuanguan, Taoyuan.
The three islands and nine continents stand in the middle of Hongmeng. Between the three islands there is the purple state, for the emperor of the east China ali unified transmission of spiritual positions, compared with the group of immortal merit, from the immortal to the gods, the gods and to the immortal, the immortal and to the heavenly immortals, heavenly immortals and the turn of the real saint, into the place of the void cave heaven.
All these three moves were supervised by Emperor Donghua. According to the “three professors of the book of God” volume 1 explains: “the East China, to the emperor of the East China to the real gas and born also, subdivided into the East pole, living in the East China above also. Purple House, the job in the Purple House, the thirty-five four divisions, move to the Palace of Cave Void of the higher quality of the true immortals.
Yang master of the eastern Shaoyang gas, biochemical sinks. The emperor, the position of the East of the heavens, the king of the pastor of all the saints, for the Lord of the creatures.” Therefore, the “Yi” said: “emperor out of the Zhen also.” Therefore, there is “East China Zifu Shaoyang Emperor”. And the true teachings of the Yuan Fu Jing “cloud:” the former two instrument is not divided, dim dreary Meng Hong as chicken, Xuanhuang in the birth of nature.
There are Pangu real people move the ancient on the present, is called Pangu, is the essence of heaven and earth, since the name of the first heavenly king, parade in the void. And there is too Yuan Holy Mother of God was born in the ridge brawn of the sky, after a hundred robberies, the heavenly kings line of charity, the Holy Mother even born emperor, the number on the emperor of the first year, the beginning of the world 36,000 years, by the beginning of the God’s rune order, for the east eye of the emperor of the Fusang Dajun Donghuanggong, numbered Yuanyang.
