did yin jiao general died under his father hand ??
ReplyDeleteif not why he will help jiang tai gong to fight his dad ??
and also why he got two more heads on his ear ?? any legend ??
Yup, Yin Jiao and his brother Yin Hong were partially being killed by his father, after they were being killed, Master Guang Cheng Zi came down to summon their souls back in-order to change them into a new person.
ReplyDeleteoh okok .. can .. thanks !!
ReplyDeleteHahahaha.. welcome bro :P
ReplyDeleteCan I ask what is the most appropriate statue for him? The multi-armed or the two armed more human form?
ReplyDeleteYin Jiao shall be in the multiple hand form.. if you are dedicating statue to him, shall consider that.
ReplyDeletebro, is he part of the 60 tai sui?? and is he one of the 36 heavenly generals?
ReplyDeleteIn some contexts, he's part of the 36 Generals.
ReplyDeleteBut in Taoism, he's the Overall-in-charge of the 60 Tai Suis (which mean include him, there will be 61 Tai Suis).
oic. thanks.
ReplyDeleteShi Fu Jave...possible to share with us the role of each individual Tai Sui for the day he is in-charge. Is it a myth again that, Tai Sui in charge of his year and his authority is on-par with Jade Emperor....another hearsay again....pls help in clarifying....does that also mean that Lord Yin Jiao authority is also very high or higher....hearsay again....hahahahahahah?
ReplyDeleteizzit true that the kim sim we normally see,with two bun on his head and holding a scroll with zhi nian tai sui is yin jiao tai sui?
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha...
ReplyDeleteas for the hearsay, is somehow correct, but definitely not higher than Jade Emperor, cos Jade Emperor is still consider as the Boss of all Deities.
If the year that the Tai Sui is being put-in-charge, he will be the one who look into all the luck or life-changes of all Beings in the Three Realms, meaning Deities, Mortals and other cultivated Souls.
So during the On-duty, other Deities that saw Tai Sui will need to pay respect to him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lord Yin Jiao is consider as the main Tai Sui of all Tai Sui in the Heavenly Realm, meaning that he is the ONLY leader of all of them, no one else.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That Zhi Nian Tai Sui is only a form to represent the 60 Tai Sui, the true form of Tai Sui which is Yin Jiao is shown in the pics - 3 Heads, 6 Arms. :P
bro , then y everytime see Doumu on top of the 60 tai shui , most temple dont have lord yin jiao. also got nan dou and bei dou .
ReplyDeleteDou Mu, the mother of All Star Lords, which is very important in Taoism Culture, without her, there wont be any Star Lords that look into our life and death issues.
ReplyDeleteNan Bei Dou, the 2 Star Lords that are appointed to look after the life and death issues of all beings. In Taoism, Bei Dou (the 7 Stars and the 9 Emperores) are the sons of Dou Mu, this is why everytime you will see them sitting at the side.
In Spore, you can rarely see any Lord Yin Jiao, cos most people dont know abt the History behind.
Does that mean that Yin Jiao is also the leader of the Tai Sui every year, I mean is praying to him the same as praying to the Zhi Nian Tai Sui?
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha.. he has been the leader for the Tai Sui since the 1st day he being appointed as the leader :P
ReplyDeleteDifferent individual year Tai Sui got their own task to perform, so we cant only pay respect to Lord Yin Jiao n neglect the others, it's a form of dis-respect.
Ah I see. What are the functions of Lord Yin Jiao, what are his duties and when is he invoked?
ReplyDeleteHis main task is to look lead the other Tai Sui to perform their duties.
ReplyDeleteAnd if he's being invoked, and the request the beings made are positive, he will assist the beings by eliminating their sins and debts, etc.
What is the best form of Lord Yin Jiao, riding the Qilin or standing?
ReplyDeleteUsually the best form wil be the one sitting on the Qilin.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the best color for lord Yin Jiao, and what is the best color for the Qilin?
ReplyDeleteUsually Lord Yin Jiao comes with a Green or Blue face. And Qilin, in Green or Red Color.

ReplyDeletewho is yin jiao master? why is he in monster form? he also have the 3 face 6 hand form, this form suggest to me the relationship/linkage of yin jiao with dou mu.. my guess: does he represent the ah siu lo side of dou mu?
ReplyDeleteYin Jiao is actually a Star that being Humanize into Being Form, for Monster-look, this come from the Story of Feng Shen Bang. To be more accurate, he shall look like what Na Zha look like, cos Na Zha is actually a creation out of the Form of Prince Yin Jiao.
ReplyDeleteThese 3 Heads & 6 Arms actually represent the 36 Forms of Natural Energies in the Universe or this Dao Space.
Due to Yin Jiao is in-charge of the Year, which is known as Tai Sui, so it is closely related with Dou Mu & Bei Dou (for giving the necessary blessing to the Mortals & other Beings).
He does not represent the Ah Siu Luo side of Dou Mu (in Taoism the accurate form of Dou Mu does not have the Ah Siu Luo face, this only happen in Buddhism).
Hi Jave, what is the daoist official title of Marshal Yin Jiao? Please write also in chinese. Thx in advance.
