Lord San Guan's 360 Official Lords Stone Carving (三百六十應感天尊南山石雕)


In here, you all will be seeing a picture on the 360 Official Lords (三宮九府三百六十應感天尊 或 九宮廿七府一百二十曹三百六十天尊) that assist San Guan Da Di (三元三品三官大帝) in performing the Recording of Credits & Merits, Distributing of Blessing and Eliminating of Obstacl...es.

PS: As recorded in the Taoist Scripture of Lord San Guan, Bao Gao & other relevant texts of San Guan.

These Stone Statues of the 360 Lords were carved in Song Dynasty (石彫刻于宋代), located as China Chongqing City, Da Zu County, Nan Shan Stone-cave Area (中國重慶市大足省南山石刻區) - the ONLY set in the World.

Due to Cultural Revolution & the invading of the Natural Disasters, not the Carving of the 360 Official Lords only left with 231 statues. Its quite a pity that we cant see the full set of the Lords anymore.

Today, in Singapore, as one of the few Taoists that promote the Culture of Lord San Guan, Jave will like to bring back the full set of 360 Official Lords to Singapore, in-order to allow more people to get to know more on San Guan and the importance of Honouring them.

Hope that in near future, our fellow Taoists in Singapore or South East Asia will be able to see them in our local Temples.
