He is well known to the Chinese, and his name and legendary tales have spread to Korea and Japan, but outside of Asia he is relatively unknown. That's a pity, because the virtues Guan Gong personifies - honor, loyalty, integrity, justice, courage, and strength - are ideals that can really impact us in these modern times. Consider the following prized specimen from our "advanced" civilization: the criminal defense lawyers who take pride in getting heinous criminals off; the smooth-talking politicians who say one thing but mean another (and never inhaled, of course); the numerous "victims" in our society who feel the world owes them everything, or at the very least a comfortable living; and even small-time petty losers who hide behind the anonymity of the Internet to spew their most hateful prejudice against other groups of people. All of these contemporary knaves are antithetical to Guan Gong. In the West, the few who know Guan Gong sometimes call him the God of War. This idea comes from the fact that Guan Gong is easily the most famous general from Chinese history. In battles he invariably dominated the field as the most powerful, most skillful and most courageous warrior, as well as an able leader and tactician. It is a bit of a misconception to name him the God of War, though. As we will demonstrate, war is not necessarily what Guan Gong is all about. Guan Gong's appearance is distinctive. His red complexion and long beard stand out immediately, as does the unique weapon - a great blade mounted on a long handle - that never leaves his side. Why is his face red? Some say it is a manifestation of his righteous anger. Others point to the story that says his complexion changed after he slew a bullying magistrate for molesting a girl. Legend has it that this change allowed him to get past the guards unrecognized, thus escaping the city and beginning his adventures. This legend depicts well his primary drive - to enact justice and to help the common people - and associates it with his face: an unambiguous, unmistakable physical emblem. Although there are many legends attached to Guan Gong, it is worth noting that he is not a mythological figure, but an actual person from history. He lived in the period of the Three Kingdoms, a time of civil strife and chivalry seventeen hundred years ago. We know of Guan Gong's exploits primarily through the historical novel San Guo Yen Yi, known in the English-speaking world as Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Dimension   NO.
