《辛丑牛年。太乙救苦天尊。慶千春》
化形遍十方,
十方幽眾皆得度,
度往東天長樂界,
界內享受聞聖經,
經引昇九天。
金身騎青獅,
青獅九首鎮幽冥,
冥冷北陰多罪魂,
魂靈拔救隨香幡,
幡領進青華。
皈命。太乙救苦大天尊。
《太乙救苦天尊行禮讚》
太乙遊十方。
聞苦施甘露。
普濟眾苦難。
顯出大慈光。
昇座九色蓮。
化身紫光仙。
靈獅嚎震乾。
坤陰變暖天。
不分貧與窮。
不分貴與賤。
不分高與下。
不分男女別。
至心一皈命。
誠心念一遍。
太乙救苦尊。
現身在案前。
Manifestation Anniversary of Salvation Lord Tai Yi
2021
Tai Yi
Tian Zun (太乙天尊) aka Tai Yi Xun Sheng Jiu Tian Zun (太乙尋聲救苦天尊) or Tai Yi Ci Fu (太乙慈父).
In
Taoism, he is the main key-person who is being appointed to take charge of the
task of doing salvation for all the suffering souls, whether is to salvage them
out of the suffering Realms or salvage them and bring them to the Eastern
Palace for enjoying of eternal joyous.
During
Taoist funeral wakes' rituals/ceremonies, Tai Yi Tian Zun will be invited and
the Priests that conduct the Ritual/Ceremony must recite scriptures that are
dedicated or associated with Tai Yi Tian Zun.
Different
mantras are being recited too, in-order to assists the passed-on person to get
the necessary blessing from Tai Yi Tian Zun.
In Big
Salvation Ritual/Ceremony, the Taoist Priest will have to recite the Official
Title of Tai Yi Tian Zun and also to visualize oneself turning into Tai Yi Tian
Zun while releasing the Positive Energy or Light Ray to do the salvation of the
suffering souls.
Today,
such Ritual/Ceremony can still be seen, but due to the engagement of Taoist
Priest to conduct Funeral Ritual/Ceremony has dropped and so, not much people
will be able to understand or see a Good "transformation"
More
Info:
Heavenly
Lord Tai Yi aka Lord Tai Yi, the high ranking Taoist Deity that take charge of
Salvations for the Sufferings and also the Pity-Souls.
According
to Taoist History, Lord Tai Yi was being honoured by the Taoists far before any
other Taoist Deities were being known and pay respect. From there, we were able
to know that Lord Tai Yi was a highly-respect Deity in the whole Culture and
Practice.
Due to
the misunderstandings and certain mixture of belief, in Taoist Culture, there
are 2 Manifestation Anniversaries for Lord Tai Yi, 1 in the Seventh Month and 1
in the Eleventh Month.
If we
will to track back the Records of our Official Taoist Culture, the actual
Anniversary shall fall on the 11th Day of Lunar 11 Month.
For Year 2021, it falls on
14 Dec.
