#Golden Summit ·2022-08-20 23:32:13

In the Golden Hall, there is a standing statue holding a sword, named Taiyi. It was made by the imperial court of the Ming Dynasty, made of copper and gilded. The total height is 1.93 meters, and the statue is 1.55 meters high. He wears a military crown, armor, with the sash fluttering, and holds a sword in both hands. He is brave and imposing, standing on a square seat. This divine statue, due to its exquisite design and being extremely rare in the world, has been listed as a first-class national cultural relic. Taiyi, also known as Taiyi. In the "Astronomical and Great Elephant Rhapsodies", it is said: "Taiyi is a star, a subject of the Heavenly Emperor, commanding the sixteen dragons, knowing wind and rain, floods and droughts, wars and upheavals, famines and epidemics." In folk beliefs, Taiyi God is a great deity who governs wind and rain, water and drought, military revolution, famine, disease and epidemic, and disasters. From the modern excavation and collation of the achievements of Wudang martial arts, many routines and techniques of the Tiangang Sect and Taiyi Sect can be seen. To this day, in the Chinese martial arts circle, there is still the saying that "Tiangang governs qi" and "Taiyi governs sword". Whether the statue of Taiyi has an intrinsic connection with Wudang martial arts is still under discussion.
