Mythical Chinese psychic beings identified in Dazu Rock Carvings

Mythical Chinese psychic beings identified in Dazu Rock Carvings

What do the mythical figures of clairvoyance and clairaudience look like and what weapons do they use? The answers could be found in the world-renowned Dazu Rock Carvings in Chongqing municipality.

Head researcher of the Dazu Rock Carvings, Li Xiaoqiang, said experts have confirmed that two 1.82-meter-high statues in the grotto in Shimenshan depict clairvoyance, known for his ability to see thousands of miles in the distance, and clairaudience, known for his equally super human skills when it comes to hearing. It is quite rare for them to be seen together in grottoes.

Some claim what they hold to hear thousands of miles away is a snake. A possible comparison, if to say it's electricity conducting this, see the Ancient Egyptian Dendera lights-here. Others claim it's telephone receiver. Time traveling anyone-image sharing a said phone- or is it a hearing aid-see here?


I figured to share because of the news on the site and not having it's own thread on here. I guess this could go either way into this forum and the Paranormal one or even Skunk Works. As is for a break a the madness.

There are rumors the the real power behind the TPTB are mythical beings like the ones mentioned in the OP that somehow gained immortality and have existed since Ancient Egypt.

You got rumours, really, do you have a source for that

I've heard it a long time ago. Not sure where I found it.

Strange wording. Rumors of word on the street is often times correct.

I wish we had some scholars of Chinese culture here. I believe those are two demons - never heard of the Chinese (or anyone else) having deities of clarvoyance or claraudience (with the exception of some of the Catholic saints, I should add.)

No it's this documentary, it tells of the ancient Egyptian connection with the TPTB.

I agree that would be interesting.

From the OP,

I'll be looking for more info, when and if released on these and more into what experts mentioned above have to say.

Thing is, I don't find any source for a "head researcher" being called Li Xiaoqiang, and I can't find any reference to ny deity or spirit involved in "far-seeing" or "far'hearing." I think someone's just making up stuff. It's also suspicious that these deities are not named.

In addition, there's no description of how they came up with these tags for these two statues. An archaeologist or researcher would not go on "feeling" but would relate them to other material (newly found documents, something at the base of the statue, a newly discovered statue, etc, etc.) They don't just walk up to a statue and think real hard for awhile and go "aha!"

So it's this complete lack of evidence that makes me think this is someone's imagination.

I found the following at least.

Li Xiaoqiang of the Dazu Academy of Rock Carvings
As quoted after an article mentioning the changes at Chinese heritage site via 2014:

The author would like acknowledge the generous assistance offered by the following individuals during her visits to Nankan and Baodingshan: Li Fangyin, Li Xiaoqiang, and Chen Huili of the Dazu Academy; Lin Jinyong and He Hui of the Bazhong City Cultural Relics Bureau; and Li Shengming of the Bazhong Nankan Caves Research Institute.

The Academy is in Dazu, Chongqing -PDF mention pg.4.

You're correct as they are said to be demons. Not sure if more evidence will happen beyond what is shared below considering a "loose"-yes, may not be the correct terms- translation into English(to claivoyance and clairaudience) and well, mythology, unless the researchers info is shared/ discussed further.

Warriors who scarified themselves and became demons: The general of Far Sight- Qian Yi Lan and The General of Brilliant Hearing- Shun Feng Er. More, can't extext as it's an image slide: Source
That's one source, seen a few more from searching the Dazu Rock Carvings, etc.

Thank you so much for the followup. What you found makes more sense than "clairvoyance" and "clairaudience", actually. There are some old folktales about hero companions that could see far in the distance or hear things at a distance - I don't usually think of those as clairvoyance/audience, though.

Terminology is everything.
