With the rise of Taoism at the end of Han Dynasty, princes and princes were absorbed into Taoism at the same time. Taoism was born to create gods. Ge Hong believes that Dong was born of Pangu and the Notre Dame of Taiyuan, but other Taoist scriptures believe that he was born of the spirit of Donghua.
Dong
Dong, a folk deity in Han Dynasty, was considered as a deity representing Yin and Yang, corresponding to the Queen Mother of the West. At the same time, influenced by the immortal thoughts in Qin and Han Dynasties, Dong and the Queen Mother of the West were regarded as the gods of the immortal world after death. ?
After being absorbed into Taoism. Taoism inherited the folk concept of the Han Dynasty, and believed that Dong was in charge of all those who achieved immortality. At the same time, he was given the title of "Fusang the Great" and thought that he had the attributes of the sun god.
Those who learn Taoism ascend to heaven must first worship Mu Gong, then Jin Mu, then go to Sanqing to worship Taishang Laojun, Yuanshi Tianzun and Lingbao Daojun, and finally meet the Emperor of Heaven.
Because princes have the divinity of receiving immortals, the Shangqing school in the Eastern Jin Dynasty regarded Dong and the Western Queen Mother as great gods.
Within the East China Sea of Fangzhushan, there are 35 divisions, with Dong as the leader.
In Taoism, Dong and the heavenly queen are in charge of two qi, and these two gods are nurturing everything in heaven.
Dong was born in the blue sea, with Poseidon's attributes. At the same time, some versions of the three Taoist officials believe that the water official is the big Fusang Dong who is in charge of all the gods in the water.
In Song Dynasty, Quanzhen religion was gradually formed, and Dong was regarded as the founder of Quanzhen religion.
