The latest Gesang flower language and legends

Gesang flower, also known as Gesang Meido, is widely controversial about what kind of plant it is. In Tibetan, Gesang means good time or happiness, and Meido means flower, so Gesang flower is also called Happy Flower. For a long time, it has been the beautiful emotion of Tibetan people looking forward to happiness and auspiciousness. Let's take a look at Gesang Flower language and legends.

Gesang Hua language

In Xizang, people often express and express their beautiful feelings through Gesang flowers, which has a high position in the hearts of the Tibetan people and is regarded by the Tibetan people as a holy flower symbolizing love and auspiciousness. In the long history of Xizang, Gesanghua, as a spirit in the hearts of the Tibetan people, has become a symbol of their pursuit of happiness, auspiciousness and beautiful emotions, beautiful but not delicate, and often becomes a synonym for strong women. Because it loves the sunshine of the plateau and is not afraid of the cold wind and frost, it is regarded as one of the most tenacious wild flowers on the plateau. It is also the city flower of Lhasa, the capital of Xizang.

Legends of eminent monks

A long time ago, a serious plague broke out in the Tibetan area, and people died one after another, and the local tribal leaders could not solve it by all means. Until one day, a living Buddha from a distant country passed by and cured everyone with a local plant. However, in order to cure the people, the eminent monk became ill from overwork and unfortunately passed away. Due to the lack of language, people's only impression of the living Buddha is what he often calls "Gesang", a plant used to cure diseases. So people called the living Buddha "Gesang living Buddha", and then all the beautiful things that symbolized hope and happiness were also called "Gesang". From then on, the most beautiful flower on the prairie is called "Gesang flower".

Legend of the gods

"Gesang" was originally the Tibetan god in charge of human suffering and happiness, because of human greed and ignorance, wanton killing creatures on the prairie, infuriating God, so God sent "Gesang" gods to punish human beings. After "Gesang" came to earth, he found that the long war had made the land lifeless, and the plague was raging everywhere. As a result, the gods disobeyed the destiny of heaven, helped human beings overcome the plague and gave human beings a chance to turn over a new leaf. In order to commemorate the god who saved them, human beings commemorate him with the most beautiful and happiest thing in the world, that is, Gesang flower.

Sister legend

A long time ago, all the flowers were the daughters of the same mother, and these girls lived in a big family. Gesang flower and snow lotus used to be twin sisters, but later separated because of their different personalities and goals when they grew up. Snow lotus chose the high Himalayas. After a period of time, Gesang missed the snow lotus very much, so she trekked all the way to the Himalayas to see the snow lotus. By the time Gesang arrived in the Himalayas, the snow lotus had been covered with ice and snow into a white flower. Gesang was so sad that she turned into a flower to accompany the snow lotus, and then they were together forever.

Mongolian legend

Legend has it that the Mongolian army entered Tibet in the Yuan Dynasty, and Xizang entered the territory of the Yuan Dynasty of China. The Mongolians brought Cuiju seeds from northern China to Xizang, where they took root and blossomed in Xizang. That era was an unprecedented prosperity in Xizang's history after the demise of the Tubo dynasty. Basiba, who was given as the "national teacher" by Kublai Khan, created a brilliant Sakya and successfully made the royal family of the Yuan Dynasty accept Tibetan Buddhism, and Basiba became an imperial division of the Yuan Dynasty. The emerald chrysanthemum spread by the Mongols was in full bloom in monasteries and many families, and people at that time called it "Gesang flower". In Tibetan, the complete word "Gesang" is "Gebasangbu", "Geba" means times and generations, and "Sangbu" means prosperity, and together it means "flowers of prosperity".
