Snow God

 

Legend has it that a long time ago, when the heaven and the earth were first formed, there was only bare land and vast sea water on the earth, without humans, animals and plants. Between heaven and earth, there are only the towering snow-capped peaks and the vast snowy plateau areas. There are the Kunlun Mountains in the north, the Himalayas in the south, the Karakoram Mountains in the west, and the Hengduan Mountains in the east, with high mountains and deep valleys. The giant pyramid-shaped Mount Everest, with a height of 884,413 meters, is the highest peak in the world. This phenomenon of towering peaks coming together is a unique snow wonder in the world's mountainous areas.

The flag cloud phenomenon often appears on the top of Mount Everest. A white cloud hangs on the top of the mountain like a flag, sometimes like raging waves, sometimes like curling smoke, just like a galloping horse, and suddenly like a goddess's veil.

The God of the Snow Land appeared in the flag clouds. He broke open the fairy gourd he carried with him and scattered the gourd seeds into the sky and the earth. The sun, moon and stars appeared in the sky, and forests and grasslands appeared on the earth.

At that time, there were still no people on the earth. The God of the Snow Land sent Busanggai and Yasanggai, a couple, to the earth to imitate their own image and shape a human being out of mud. Busang made a man, and Yasang made a man. Women, and make them husband and wife, give them life, soul and vitality, and let them withstand the baptism of sunshine, wind and rain.

After a long time, the clay figures turned into living people, but they could not speak. Busangai and Yasangai taught them how to speak and think, and named them "people". Since then, there have been human beings on the earth. Under the guidance of Busanggai and Yasanggai, they gradually learned to work, live and recuperate.

Then, the two gods made tens of thousands of birds and animals out of clay, including elephants, horses, cows, sheep, dogs, chickens, ducks, tigers, leopards, wolves, muntjacs, deer, birds, etc., and gave them names respectively. Their different calls put them into the ocean and the forest. Since then, there have been aquatic animals such as fish, shrimps, crabs, and shells in the ocean, and various vertebrates, reptiles, and insects have appeared on land.

The magnificent natural creation, the magnificent snowy scenery, and the primitive purity and tranquility have allowed generations of snowy people who are good at singing and dancing to sing the "Snowy Divine Song":

 

if there was a place

You can look at the world with clear eyes

You can remember the years with a gentle voice

You can write indifference on your face

You can engrave happiness in your heart

Then this place must be a snowy area

heaven where gods live

No worldly clutter

There is only unexplainable purity and holiness

There is reincarnation, reincarnation, and faith here

There is also our favorite simplicity and simplicity

Snowland is the paradise in our hearts

Snowland is our eternal hometown
