"What about the Jade Emperor's background?" I asked curiously, and Yisha said,"There are many explanations for the Jade Emperor's origins.
One was the Prince of the East in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. He was the husband of the Queen Mother of the West, also known as the Great Fusang Emperor. He was once the Emperor of Donghua. However, in later legends, Emperor Dong Hua was someone else. It was possible that someone else had taken the seat after he was promoted to the Jade Emperor.
Second, in the Taoist legends, the disciple of the Three Pure Ones, the Jade Emperor God.
Third, according to folk legends, a great good person in the world was repeatedly tested by Taibai and Jinxing. He felt that he was worthy of being the leader of the immortals and was elected as the Jade Emperor.
Fourth,"Journey to the West" borrowed the Buddha's mouth to say that the Jade Emperor had cultivated the Boundless Tribulation to have such a status.
Fifth, it was equivalent to the Buddhist Lord of Kali, also known as Sakra, named Indra. There were many explanations about this in Indian mythology.
Sixth, it was equivalent to the God of the Christian Church and the God of the Roman Church.
7. It was equivalent to the word 'Allah'. Jade Emperor
The origin of the Jade Emperor: The Jade Emperor was also known as the Supreme Jade Emperor of the Haotian Golden Palace and the Jade Emperor of the Xuan Qiong High. Song Zhenzong and Song Huizong both had saint titles. Emperor Zhenzong of Song Dynasty called him the Great Heavenly Emperor of the Jade Emperor of the True Body Dao. Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty called him Taishang Kaitian, holding talismans and holding true bodies, Haotian Jade Emperor God. In the Daoist scriptures, it was called the Supreme Supreme of Haotian Golden Watchtower, and naturally, it was called the Supreme Jade Emperor God. According to the High Jade Emperor's Collection of Classics, the Jade Emperor was the son of King Yan Jingle and Empress Baoyue in Haotian. When he was born, his body was covered in flames and filled the kingdom. He was intelligent when he was young and kind when he was old. He gave all the treasures in the treasury of the kingdom to the poor, the widowers, the widows, the lonely, the helpless, the hungry and the disabled. After the death of King Jingle, the prince managed the government well. He told the ministers to accept all living beings, so he left the country and went to Mount Xiangyan in Puming to cultivate Taoism. After 3,200 kalpas, he realized that the Golden Immortal was originally called the Natural Jue Emperor, and after 100 million kalpas, he realized the Jade Emperor.
The Emperor of All Gods: The Jade Emperor was the Emperor of the Heavens, the King of True Immortals, the Lord of Sacred Venerables, and the highest god of all gods in the Three Realms and the True Immortals in the Three Caves. The Jade Emperor had the power to command the nine heavens and summon the gods of the four seas and five mountains. All the gods stood by his side like emperors and ministers in the mortal world. Bai Juyi had a poem saying,"An Qi envies the door generation, and the attendants are like Gongqing." Greetings to the Jade Emperor, kowtow and show my sincerity."
The Heavenly Dao of the Chief Zhi said,"The Jade Emperor is the incarnation of the Three Pure Ones." The Three Pure Ones and the Jade Emperor are like nothingness first and then wonderful, Wuji first and then Tai Chi, inaction first and then action. Therefore, the Jade Emperor is the master of the three talents, in charge of the balance of heaven, earth and man. The Jade Emperor sent the North Pole Emperor of Ziwei to take charge of the meridians and meridians of heaven and earth, sent the Great Emperor of Gouchen Shanggong to take charge of the three talents of heaven, earth and man, and took charge of the military reform of the world. He sent the Houtu Emperor to take charge of the reproduction of yin and yang, the earth, mountains and rivers. Everything in the world, Yin and Yang, was in the hands of the Jade Emperor.
Sacrifice: The birthday of the Jade Emperor is the ninth day of the first month. Taoist temples held a ceremony called the Jade Emperor Festival. Taoist priests and Taoist believers who participated in the ceremony had to pay their respects to the Jade Emperor and perform the ritual of fasting to pray for longevity. The people of Fujian and Taiwan called the Jade Emperor "Heaven Duke." On the ninth day of the first lunar month, the whole family would fast, bathe, offer incense, worship, and recite scriptures. In some places, they would even sing opera to entertain the gods. In the past, there was a custom of holding a Jade Emperor Festival in the north of China and carrying the Jade Emperor statue to patrol the streets of the village. It was said that the 25th of December was the day when the Jade Emperor visited the world. In the past, Taoist temples and the people would burn incense and recite scriptures to welcome the Jade Emperor.
The Jade Emperor was also known as the Jade Emperor, the ruler of the heavens, so he was also known as the Lord of Heaven. He is the son of the King of the Moon. According to the records in Volume 1 of the General Mirror of Immortals in the Past Dynasties, there was a country named Guangyan Miaole in Haotian Realm. The king of the country was named King Jingde Shi, and his wife was the queen of King Baoyue Guang. She only hid her kindness to the people of the country. She never slackened when she traveled the Five Ridges, so that the people were safe and the disasters did not occur. It's not enough to be old and have no children. As soon as Erzhen entered his territory, he knew that he was sincere and devoted to Taoism. The brave Huang Lao (namely, Zhong Huangzi, one of the five elders when heaven and earth were first created) said: The cause is here. Yuan Shi said: If the pure and true qi is cast into the body of the holy virtue and benevolence, and the child is pregnant, the child of the gods will be born, and it will be determined to be the sage of the three talents. What does the emperor really think? Elder Huang nodded and blew on the jade ruyi, which was a spiritual treasure from beyond the heavens, and turned into a baby. At this time, the king of Jingde suddenly saw auspicious light shining on the palace in his bedroom, making it look like a hundred treasures. There were many guards of honor, guarding a nine-dragon chariot, floating in the air, sitting in the middle of the two-winged people are casting magic images, the head of the high true holding a child with a face garden ears big, clear eyebrows, beautiful eyes, all over the body covered with light. The king and queen were overjoyed and bowed respectfully. Erzhen said: I am stupid and have no children. I hope you can let me have this child as your son. Huang Lao said: This child's root is extraordinary, will prove the highest grade, you raise him well. The king came forward to worship and receive him. Erzhen took out the treasure chair and handed it to him. The king came to receive it with both hands. It was as heavy as a mountain. He struggled and sweated all over. Suddenly he realized that it was a dream. He called the queen to tell him. What he saw was the same. From then on, the king's spirit grew, and three years later, the queen gave birth to a wise prince. Since childhood, he left the country to cultivate Taoism. After 3,200 kalpas, he became a Golden Immortal and was called the King of Pure Nature. After another 100,000 kalpas, he finally proved that he was the Jade Emperor and the God of Heaven.
The Jade Emperor had several versions. In the Daoist immortal system, the highest leader of the Heavenly Court was equivalent to the emperor on earth, but his status was lower than the Three Pure Ones. Later, he was on equal footing with the Four Heavenly Kings, and the Confucians called him Haotian God.”
