"What's in the ghost realm?" I asked. Can you introduce me to the history of the World of Spirits and Souls and other things related to it?”Yisha replied,""The Ghost Realm is known as the Underworld. Legend has it that it's ruled by Hades and is extremely terrifying. There's also Hell. Hades is known as the Ghost King. In China, there are records of the Netherworld in a large number of ancient myths and Taoist classics. The people of China divide everything in the world into two extremes. This is the Yin Yang theory of China and an important part of China's ancient philosophy. Because in our traditional culture, there is a saying that plants become spirits,"vine spirits and tree monsters". This principle also comes from the Taoist sun god that can "gather to form, scatter to zero." It could even turn into a spirit, including stones. Anything with spiritual energy could change into form. It was not limited to the Six Paths. However, it was always included in the theory of Yin and Yang. In China, a large number of ancient myths and Taoist classics had records of the netherworld. The people of China divided everything in the world into two poles. This was the Yin-Yang theory of China, an important part of China's ancient philosophy. The people of China divided the space where humans lived into heaven (Yang) and earth (Yin). People were divided into male (Yang) and female (Yin); Time is white (Yang), day (Yin); The sun (Yang) and moon (Yin) were born in heaven. In the Celestial Empire, there were three realms: Heaven, Earth, and Hell. It was believed that humans had souls, and that each person had three souls and seven spirits. At least before the Zhou Dynasty, people believed that humans were divided into souls. The soul, which was yang qi, and the spirit, which was yin, combined to form a human. After a person died, the spiritual aura returned to the sky, and the essence, spirit, and skeleton returned to the earth. The evolution of the previous life, the present life, and the next life was explained by the soul, spirit, and spirit. The elf world was divided into three realms: The human world on the earth, the heaven of the gods in the sky, and the hell of the soul essence on the ground. The Yellow Springs was probably the earliest concept of the netherworld in the religious belief of the Chinese dynasty. Later, the underworld of Taoism appeared in the Han Dynasty. After the introduction of Buddhism, it developed a systematic hell system based on the original evil hell of Taoism, namely the eighteen levels of hell. The concept of hell was greater than hell, and the concept of the netherworld was greater than hell. The netherworld generally referred to the space where the dead souls lived, so it was not limited to the underworld. It might even overlap with the space of the human world on the ground and people could not sense it. Hell referred specifically to the place where the sinful souls of the dead were imprisoned and punished. It could be said to be the prison and execution ground of the netherworld. Most people might still be smiling in hell after death, just like living in the human world. The good people might even become immortals and gods after death and enter heaven. The Great Emperor of Fengdu (Great Emperor of North Yin of Fengdu) and the other four Ghost Emperors of the Five Regions, King Yama (King Yama) or the ten separate Kings of Yama were the rulers of the Underworld. The God of Earth (God of Earth), the God of Heaven and King Qi of Mount Tai (Great Emperor of East Peak), Ksitigarbha, and the God of the City were also the gods that controlled the life and death of people. The "Three Realms" here referred to the three realms mentioned by Taoism. Although Buddhism expanded the three realms into six realms, it was still not comprehensive, because in our traditional culture, there was a saying that plants became spirits,"vine spirits and tree monsters". This principle also originated from the Taoist sun god,"gathering is formed, scattering is zero." It could even turn into a spirit, including stones. Anything with spiritual energy could change into form. It was not limited to the Six Paths. However, it was always included in the theory of Yin and Yang.
The Netherworld was the place that controlled the lives of all living beings. After death, the souls of all living things in the world would be captured by the black and white natures and brought to the underworld. All good and evil in the world of the living would end here. As the saying went, the living lived in the world of the living while the dead lived in the netherworld. The world of the living was one world while the netherworld was another world. Everyone said that the netherworld was gloomy and terrifying, and there were ghosts everywhere. In fact, who had ever seen it with their own eyes? There was beauty and ugliness in a world. It was the same in the Yang Realm and the netherworld.”(Author: Yisha has appeared in the novel written by this author. Hehe, Yisha is the commentator.)）The text ended.
