Puli Baohu Temple of the Earth Goddess Introduction
"Earth Mother" originally comes from China, specifically from the Earth Mother Temple in Jingu County, Hanzhong Prefecture, Shaanxi Province, established on the ninth day of the first month in the ninth year of the Guangxu era. The teachings of the Earth Mother were passed down through the influence of the Liang clan in the Xi Nan Li of this town. The worship and recitation of the Earth Mother Sutra have never been interrupted. The Earth Mother is the deity that governs the mountains and rivers of the earth and is one of the Four Emperors in Taoism, ranked alongside the Jade Emperor who governs the heavenly realm. Since ancient times, there has been the saying, "Heaven brings warmth, Earth brings coolness," reflecting humanity's reverence for land and nature.
