II. 24. Pan-gu

II. 24. Pan-gu

Bogdan Georgievich Lisitsa

Pan-gu is the first man on earth and the ancestor in ancient Chinese mythology. Pan-gu is Ham Nag / Ham Snake, the first king and the personification of the first people. The name Pan-gu is a variation of the name Ham Nag / Geb Nag:

Pan gu ≈ Ban gu ≈ Ba n'gu = Geb Nag

According to Chinese myths, initially the Universe was a formless chaos. Over time, a universal egg arose in the chaos, from which Pan-gu later emerged. The egg is the connection with the goose, with which the god Geb / Ham was identified.

It is believed that with a swing of a huge axe Pan-gu separated Yin from Yang and created the muddy part - the earth (Yin) and the light part - the sky (Yang). To prevent Yin and Yang from joining, Pan-gu pushed the sky away from the earth every day. The same motif is found in the myths about Geb. Shu separated the spouses Geb and Nut, lifting Nut up (the sky), and left Geb in a horizontal position (the earth).

When Pangu was sure that the earth and sky would not unite and did not need his support, he died. Pangu's body turned into the earth, rivers arose from his blood, roads from his veins, stars, plants, trees from his hair, metal from his teeth and bones, and jade from his bone marrow. Pangu's arms and legs formed the four cardinal directions. His breath became the wind, his voice became thunder, his left eye became the sun, and his right eye became the moon.

Pangu is both the first king and the personification of the first people. The creation of the earth from Pangu's body is information in the form of a myth about the first civilization, when people worked hard as slaves for a long time and changed the appearance of the earth.
