Martial arts and ME Personal thoughts and comments based on my preception and observation.

Guan Sheng Di is the Chinese God of War. He was originally Guan Yu, a general of the Three Kingdoms period of Chinese history (ca. 3rd century AD). Famous for his bravery, honesty, and loyalty, after his death Guan Yu became the Chinese God of War. Not God of War in the sense of a destroyer, but God of War as a protector from the horrors of war and as an example of martial valor. He is the patron of the virtuous and one of the Chinese Gods of Wealth.





I personally Pray to Guan Sheng Di for safety and for self defence. I prayed to him before I'm sparring fights and I ask him to protect us in our fight.





I remember a story told by my grand father that once in Manila when the Chinese was attacked by the Spaniard, one man prayed , then Guan Kong came down from heaven and slaughter all the Spaniard who attack them.





After the fight Guan gong told the man when ever they were attack just call his name three times and he will help them.





After the first attack the Spaniards came again but unfortunately the old man rattle and was killed.



That is why his Binondo Manila there is a large temple dedicated to Guan yu for helping the Chinese . (this is just a story it is either true or false.)
