Why is there the saying "When Jiang Taigong is here, the gods abdicate"?
What kind of god is Jiang Ziya?
As for what kind of god Jiang Ziya is, there are many folk theories!
One, the lantern god.
Two, the God of Light.
Three, the leader of all gods.
Four, the God of Fangliang.
Fifth, the god of house keeping.
So Xiao Liu will tell you how the gods Jiang Ziya came to be.
It is said that after Jiang Ziya became a god, he wanted to make himself a god, but he lost his god position. In anger, he saw a little light and sat on it. Only later did he realize that it was a lantern!
After sitting on the lantern, Jiang Ziya became the lantern god.
But this lantern god is also good. It can bring people light at night, which can be regarded as serving the people.
So, Jiang Ziya’s Lantern God and Light God are actually the same god. But the God of Light is more awesome than the God of Lantern. Because wherever there is light, there is Jiang Ziya, but the chances of the Lantern God appearing are rare. Look at the lights we have now, no one has any lanterns!
Let’s talk about Jiang Ziya, the leader of all gods.
Because Jiang Ziya is in charge of the list of gods and has a whip to beat the gods, he has sealed the gods in these three realms, so Jiang Ziya became the leader of the gods in the legend.
Let’s talk about Jiang Ziya’s Liang Shen.
In Fengshen Yanyi, Jiang Ziya had nowhere to go after leaving Kunlun Mountain, so he came to Chaoge and lived in the home of his good brother Song Yiren.
One day the brothers were drinking and chatting together in the back garden.
Jiang Ziya knew a little about Feng Shui and saw that the back garden was a treasure trove of Feng Shui, so he asked Song Yiren to build a building to suppress his luck.
But because of the mischief caused by five imps, Song Yiren’s house was burned down seven or eight times after it was built.
Jiang Ziya took in the five imps, climbed the beams at the third watch, and built the building!
So, this is the origin of Jiang Ziya’s God of Liang and the God of Householding.
There is also a legend that Jiang Ziya wanted to call himself the Jade Emperor. He was embarrassed to say it directly. The gods asked who was the Jade Emperor, and Jiang Ziya said that someone sat down and others sat down. A man named Zhang Youren took the position of Jade Emperor. Jiang Ziya sat on the rafter angrily.
Because Jiang Ziya replaced Yuanshi Tianzun to become a god, but he himself did not have a godship.
And because he controls the divine whip, although he does not have a divine position, he can rule over the gods.
So, Jiang Ziya, who holds the whip of beating gods and is the leader of all gods, wherever he goes, the gods there will give way and be controlled by him.
So, there are a few words to prove Jiang Ziya’s awesomeness. For example, when Jiang Taigong is here, there are no taboos! Jiang Taigong is here, the gods retreat, or the gods abdicate!
These are usually written on some talisman stickers when building a house and pasted on the beams! Because Jiang Ziya holds the divine whip, he has no taboos. No god dares to make a mistake in front of him!
