In Tibet, King Gesar is a heroic epic
collectively created by China's Tibetans. Originating in the folk
oral traditions, Gesar passed down through Tibetan generations in a
combination of song and narration for over 1,000 years. So far,
Gesar has been collected as a work composed of more than 120
volumes, with more than 1 million verses, altogether over 20 million
words, 25 times the length of the Iliad. Gesar, is the greatest work
of Tibetan literature, Gesar is easily the lengthiest epic in the
world, and also became popular in ballads among the Mongols and
Tus.
King Gesar was born a son of supreme god Indira.
In the youth, he was mischievous to the point of wickedness, unruly,
but divine by nature and possessing supernature. His great
antagonist was his paternal uncle, cowardly, vain and pretentious,
who hoped to rule the country. The hero was banished with his
mother, but his exile enabled him to build up hidden strength. He
came out victorious in a horse race, whose winner was to become the
country's king. Then he started to conquer the kingdom of demons,
the Jiang kingdom and the Hor (northern people, Mongolian) kingdom.
The war between `Ling' and Hor kingdoms was one of the central
pieces in the story. The war between `Ling' and Hor started with a
beautiful girl, Qomu, the queen of king Gesar. The Hor king, `white
tent king', heard about her beauty, and sent a message to `Ling'
king for her. Upon the refusal, Hor king sent troops to attack
`Ling' kingdom. After several battles, another girl was sent to Hor
king in the place of Qomu. The trickery was discovered, and battle
renewed. The capital of `Ling' was captured by Hor troop with queen
Qomu. King Gesar summarized all his troops and with the help of an
important Hor general, captured the capital of Hor, killed the
`white tent king' and rescued Qomu.
In Tibetan-inhabited
areas Gesar has been known as the king of the ancient Tibetan
kingdom of Ling. The great hero and his brave army are kept alive in
the richly imaginative retelling of the epic. From early times the
epic was passed on orally (See Gesar Bards and Artists). Today a
small number of woodblock preserving sections of the epic can be
found in Lhasa, Xigaze and Dege County in Sichuan Province and some
handwritten copies in the homes of families high and low. The Potala
Palace still has a statue of Gesar, drawing pilgrims every day.
Gesar was the king of Ling in the 11th century, and more of his
deeds were recorded in the Kangba region than anywhere else.
Handwritten and printed versions of Gesar from Dege are considered
the most authoritative works, and in Dege, people still argue that
the village of Ngaxu in northern Dege County was the birthplace of
Gesar. |
