Chapter 1 Chapter 1 Eve's Rebellion

After waking up from the dream, Nu Wa began to create humans. Can't tell if it's morning or evening.In the blood-red clouds in the sky, there is a radiant sun, like a flowing golden ball wrapped in ancient lava; on the other side is the moon, white and cold like cast iron.Between the two, there are flickering stars and floating clouds of unknown origin. Nuwa is a big frog. right?Isn't Nuwa a snake?Now, in the portrait stone, Nuwa and Fuxi are both "human head and snake body".Moreover, their snake tails are still intertwined, which clearly means that they are preparing to pass on the family line.

On the surface, there is nothing wrong with this, because snakes can become dragons, but frogs cannot. If Nuwa was a frog, wouldn't the "descendant of the dragon" become the "descendant of the frog"? How could Nuwa be a frog?How could it be a frog? because Turning into a snake was done secretly by someone.Time, no later than Han.

Portrait of Han Wuliang.Nuwa's name first appeared in "Chu Ci Tianwen", but it did not say whether it was a snake or a frog.The written record of the so-called "human head and snake body" was first seen in the "Chu Ci Zhangju" written by Wang Yi of the Eastern Han Dynasty; the picture image was first seen in the stone reliefs of the Han Dynasty.It can be seen that Nuwa's snake should be said in the Han Dynasty, and there is no original basis.

It can be seen that Wa is a frog, and Nuwa is a female frog, just a great, sacred frog that created life.Such a divine frog or holy frog, of course, cannot be written as "frog" as a frog, and a special word must be created for her.Although we haven't found the oracle bone inscriptions or bronze inscriptions of this word, we can vaguely see her demeanor in those days on the frogman map of Papua New Guinea in the South Pacific.

Oceania Papua New Guinea fish bird frog figure areca bark painting.The images in this picture are all symbols of reproductive worship.Among them, fish, frogs, and flowers symbolize female reproductive worship, and birds symbolize male reproductive worship. For details, see the discussion in the later chapters of this volume.The main image of this picture is a frogman, which can be regarded as "Nuwa of Oceania".

Here, how can there be any shadow of a snake? On the contrary, Nuwa is a frog, but it is as unquestionable as Horus in ancient Egypt is an eagle.What's more, it is the frog that can make man.Dragons and snakes, neither. but, God created man once.On the last day of the creation of the world, God first made Adam out of clay, then made Eve out of Adam's rib, and then placed them in the Garden of Eden to complete all the work.After that, it's rest.Even if the two of them disobeyed the warning, were tempted by the snake, ate the forbidden fruit, and committed the original sin, it didn't matter.

Apparently, God created man with ease, even a little carelessness. Nuwa worked much harder.She first used loess and mud to knead people individually, regardless of gender.Later, I was really overwhelmed, so I tore off a cane and splashed it with mud.But even with such mass production, there is no rest.She also needs to apply to God for the position of a matchmaker so that she can help people talk about marriage.Even after an honorable retirement, he has to go out of the mountain again to save the suffering.One year, a guy named Gonggong among her descendants got angry and broke Optimus Prime Buzhou Mountain with his head.Nuwa had no choice but to stand up, refine stones to mend the sky in a smoky fire, and cut off the feet as pillars recklessly. Only then did the world return to normal and human beings return to peace.

strangeness!Why is Nüwa so busy, and so concerned about it? It's very simple, Nuwa is not the creator, not the god of creation.The God of Creation only needs to kick off the prelude and create a man and a woman, and then he can ignore it. Everything is up to the created to do it for themselves, or to blame themselves.It's a pity that Nu Wa is not.Except for people, everything in the world has nothing to do with her, and even being a matchmaker requires the approval of other gods. Good question!Because it’s really asking—who made the world? Who is the ultimate creator? Sorry, no comment as we don't have a creator god.Pangu just separated the original world; Chaos was enlightened.None of them are creators.The real creator is "Tao", or "Yi".Tao is as invisible and invisible as God, but it is a pity that he did not do it, and he is not God. The "Yi" in "Book of Changes" has no "godhead".

That is to say, the ultimate creator is absent. There is no ultimate creator, or the ultimate has no godhead, which is a major feature of Chinese civilization.Its profound influence on fate and choice for three thousand and seven hundred years, as well as success or failure is a topic that must be discussed slowly.What is certain now is that in the genealogy of world mythology, Nuwa is not the first god, or even the first woman. Who is the first woman? eve.
