Chinese Dragon:
The Chinese dragon
(Traditional Chinese: 龍; Simplified Chinese:
龙; pinyin: lóng Cantonese: loong; Hokkien:
dieng, leng) is a mythical creature. Long
a potent symbol of auspicious power in Chinese
folklore and art, it is the embodiment of
the concept of yang and associated with the
weather and water as the bringer of rain.
The dragon is sometimes
in the West viewed as a national emblem of
China. However, this usage within both the
People's Republic of China and the Republic
of China on Taiwan is extremely rare, both
because the dragon has monarchist connotations
which run counter to recent Chinese ideologies
and because the dragon has aggressive, warlike
connotations which Chinese governments dislike.
It is for the latter reason that the giant
panda is far more often used within China
as a national emblem than the Chinese dragon.
However even though
Dragon lost it symbol as China, it is still
a respected creature in Chinese cultural daily
life. It is a taboo to disfigure a depiction
of Dragon, for example when U.S sportswear
giant Nike made an advert campaign for their
brands, a basketball player is shown slaying
a Dragon (amongst beating up an old Kung Fu
master). This advert was banned immediately
from the Chinese government after public outcry
for disrespect of the Dragon.
Also a
lot of Chinese proverbs and idioms still use
Dragons, one example "Looking forward
their child turn to a Dragon".
