CNY 2019 | Year of the Pig | Gong Xi Fa Cai | Guan Di Temple, KL Pt # 2 ~ Mahalo JC
Gong Xi Fa Cai!
The Pig (豬) is the twelfth of the 12-year cycle of animals which appear in the Chinese zodiac related to the Chinese calendar. In the continuous sexagenary cycle of sixty years, every twelfth year corresponds to hai, 亥 (the twelfth of the twelve Earthly Branches); this re-recurring twelfth year is commonly called the Year of the Pig 豬. There are five types of Pigs, named after the Chinese elements. In order, they are: Metal, Water, Wood, Fire, and Earth. These correspond to the Heavenly Stems. Thus, there are five pig years in every sexegenary cycle. For example, this year 2019, the Earthly Branch is the twelfth, hài, and the Heavenly Stem is the sixth, jǐ 己. The Chinese New Year in 2019 is February fifth: this corresponds with the beginning of both the sexegenary year of jǐ hài and also the zodiac year of the Earth Pig.

Guan Yu: Why Koreans Worship a Chinese Tofu Seller
How is it that a Chinese tofu salesman, who lived his entire life in the Middle Kingdom about 1800 years ago and never set foot on the Korean Peninsula, came to be venerated in Korea as a god of both war and wealth? Join us as we trace back the story of Guan Yu, and discover how this semi-mythical figure, described in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms as over 9 foot tall, with a 2-foot long beard, a face as red as a jujube, and eyes like those of a phoenix, first appeared in Korea during the Japanese Hideyoshi invasions of the late 16th century. In a few short years, several shrines were built in honor of Guan Yu, the bean-curd-seller-cum-general. In the last years of the Joseon Dynasty, King Gojong and his second wife had more shrines built in Seoul, giving the Guan Yu cult more impetus. Why was this?
Guan Yu's shrines have been all but forgotten by modern Korea, and yet in some places ceremonies are still held. Where are they carried out, and by whom? Dongmyo is the largest Guan Yu shrine remaining, and the only one in Seoul that still sits in its original location. Some interesting discoveries have been made during recent restoration, but that restoration is also not without controversy.
Jacco Zwetsloot has lived in Korea for 14 of the last 18 years. He has held a number of jobs in this country, and calls himself a Jacco-of-all-trades. Currently Jacco is studying for a Master's degree in Korean Studies at Leiden University in the Netherlands. He has previously spoken to the RAS on Hollywood movies set and filmed in Korea, North Korean comic books, and Japanese-run POW camps in Korea during World War Two.

The story begins with Guan Yu's early life, when he is forced to flee his hometown to avoid arrest after killing a local bully. After a long journey and experiencing hardship, Guan meets Liu Bei and Zhang Fei and becomes sworn brothers with them in the Oath of the Peach Garden.

Guan Di, Cérémonie 2015 - Saint-Pierre, La Réunion
Voici un résumé de cette cérémonie qui dure une vingtaine de minutes avant que les spectateurs vénèrent aussi GuanDi et leurs ancêtres qu’ils soient croyants ou non.
Réalisation : Andres-asm
Musique : Heart of Asia de Pierre Gerwig Langer
Les descendants des engagés chinois à la Réunion, commémorent tous les ans Guan Di dans divers temples de l’île. Les festivités les plus importantes ont lieu à Saint-Denis mais la célébration au temple de Saint-Pierre est plus traditionnelle et familiale.
En fin de soirée des bénévoles préparent et offrent aux participants ou simples spectateurs, chinois ou non un plat de pâtes, les « mines de la longévité ».
La langue utilisée pendant la cérémonie est le Hakka ( 客家话) car la majorité des chinois de ce sous-groupe des Chinois Han était regroupée au sud de l’île et le temple est construit à l’emplacement du local de réunion des premiers chinois de la région de Mo yen ou Mei Xian (peuple Hakka).
En 2016 ou 2017, elle se fera dans un tout nouveau temple en cours de construction par souscription.
Héro au siècle des Han en Chine, le Général Guan Yu (Guerre des Trois Royaumes) fût déifié sous le nom de Guan di par l’Empereur de la dynastie Suy sous le nom de Guan Di.
Ses récits épiques, adorés des migrants chinois pour les valeurs qu’ils transmettent, l’ont rendu très populaire. Il est le Dieu de la Guerre mais aussi de la littérature et du commerce.

Malaysia International Guan Gong Cultural Festival / 2018馬來西亞國際關公文化節
I believe this was a procession for the Malaysia International Guan Gong Cultural Festival / 2018馬來西亞國際關公文化節: The procession would have started in Chinatown/Petaling Street and went all the way to Tong Kat Shin, Changkat and Jalan Alor tonight - I did not know what festival it was as someone I asked did not speak good English!
In Chinese folk religion, Guan Yu is widely referred to as Emperor Guan (關帝; Guāndì) and Duke Guan (關公; Guān Gōng), while his Taoist title is Holy Emperor Lord Guan (關聖帝君; Guān Shèng Dì Jūn).
In the Western world, Guan Yu is sometimes called the Taoist God of War, probably because he is one of the most well-known military generals worshipped by the Chinese people. This is a misconception of his role, as, unlike the Greco-Roman deity Mars or the Norse god Týr, Guan Yu, as a god, does not necessarily bless those who go to battle, but rather people who observe the code of brotherhood and righteousness.
Guan Yu (died January or February 220), courtesy name Yunchang, was a general serving under the warlord Liu Bei in the late Eastern Han dynasty. He played a significant role in the events that led to the end of the dynasty and the establishment of the state of Shu Han – founded by Liu Bei – in the Three Kingdoms period. After Liu Bei gained control of Yi Province in 214, Guan Yu remained in Jing Province to govern and defend the area for about seven years. In 219, while he was away fighting Cao Cao's forces at the Battle of Fancheng, Liu Bei's ally Sun Quan broke the Sun–Liu alliance and sent his general Lü Meng to invade and conquer Liu Bei's territories in Jing Province in a stealth operation. By the time Guan Yu found out about the loss of Jing Province after his defeat at Fancheng, it was too late. He was subsequently captured in an ambush by Sun Quan's forces and executed.
As one of the best known Chinese historical figures throughout East Asia, Guan Yu's true life stories have largely given way to fictionalised ones, most of which are found in the 14th-century historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms or passed down the generations, in which his deeds and moral qualities have been lionised. Guan Yu is respected as an epitome of loyalty and righteousness. He is portrayed as having a red face.
