Promoting the Official Culture of Taoism Series - Salvation Ritual Culture (宣揚正統道教文化系列之超渡法會鎮壇神祇)


Credit to Taiwanese Taoist Priest Master Chen Luo Ting for sharing with us this picture (非常之感謝由台灣陳羅霆道長與我們分享此照片).

I think we have been promoting this for quite sometime, but yet ...in South East Asia, many folks are still not able to get it correct.

These few years, it's great to see that in Taiwan, China or even Singapore, we are promoting the Upright Culture for Taoist Salvation (拔渡法會) or 7th Month Celebration (中元普渡) by not using the Unofficial Paper Figurine of Da Shi Ye aka Ghostly King (而並非鬼王大士爺), instead, we use the Official Taoist Heavenly Generals/Marshals to guard on the Salvation Ground/Premises (鎮守法會壇場).

In here is a picture of Heavenly General Lu (魯元帥), Full Official Taoist Title as Tie Niu Da Jiang Lu Yuan Shuai (鐵牛大將魯元帥), which partnered with Shen Hu He Qiao Er Yuan Shuai (神虎何喬二元帥) & Dong Yue Wu Dao Jiang Jun (東嶽五道大將軍), in maintaining the order in the Salvation Ground/Premises or to lead the Wandering Souls for Salvaged by Heavenly Lord Tai Yi (受太乙救苦天尊之拔渡).

Hope to see this is being widely promoted in time to come, as to preserve our Official Taoist Culture & Teaching till far & long.
