The speaker was passionate and enthusiastic.
It was a truly moving experience.
At this moment, netizens from both China and other countries were all shocked by Rosen's words.
The mythology of the Celestial Empire is one of the oldest mythological stories in the world, but few people know or understand the culture of the Celestial Empire.
Now, when Rosen recounts the myths of the Celestial Empire as he knows them, the shock he brings to people is indescribable.
Because this completely overturned their previous worldview.
They were taught from a young age that people should have faith.
Whom do we believe in?
Belief in gods.
But now, Rosen is presenting a different approach to the public.
That is, it doesn't matter if you don't have a faith.
Or rather, it doesn't matter if you don't have faith in a god.
Whether you have faith in yourself, your ancestors, or heroes, it doesn't matter.
Because these people can completely replace gods and become people's faith.
No wonder that of the world's four ancient civilizations, only China remains in the end; it is all because of their unique beliefs.
Let alone netizens who have never been exposed to Chinese mythology, even Chinese netizens themselves feel that their understanding of their own mythology is not as good as that of a foreigner.
In particular, Rosen's understanding of struggle in Chinese mythology is thought-provoking.
Pangu created the world; this was a struggle against the heavens.
Yu the Great's flood control was a battle against the earth.
Hou Yi shooting down the suns was a battle against the gods.
Whether it's fighting against the heavens, the earth, or even the gods, the people of the Celestial Empire have only one answer: endless joy.
They were not afraid at all, they were not intimidated at all, and they even enjoyed it.
In contrast, myths from other countries have never expressed such views.
They believe in God and dare not disobey His will in the slightest.
But they never dared to fight against the gods like the people of the Celestial Empire.
These struggles are, in fact, struggles against fate.
All of their struggles ultimately reflect the core concepts of the Celestial Empire's mythology.
That is the idea that human will can conquer nature.
Although Professor Rosen spoke casually, every netizen could feel the immense weight carried by those four words.
You can feel that every story, every character, every word, and even every stroke of the brush in the mythology of the Celestial Empire is a struggle!
The struggle between man and fate!
