Description
Chunghwa Post launched its series of postage stamps on Taiwanese folk religion in 2022. The 2025 issue of the series is comprised of four stamps, Fude Zhengshen, The Holy Emperor Guan, Jade Emperor and Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva. Descriptions of the stamps follow:
1. Fude Zhengshen (NT$8): Serving as the guardian of the local land, this deity has a kind expression and long white beard, and he holds a gold ingot in one hand and a staff in the other. He is in charge of the people’s daily affairs and is commonly known as “Tudi Gong.”
2. The Holy Emperor Guan (NT$8): Representing loyalty and righteousness, the deity is the guardian of many professions. He sits majestically, with one hand stroking his beard, and a large halberd beside him. The Holy Emperor Guan is revered in Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism.
3. Jade Emperor (NT$8): The supreme deity of the celestial realm, sovereign of all deities, he presides over the 36 heavens above and the 72 earthly realms below. Possessing a regal bearing, he wears a yellow celestial robe and holds a ritual tablet with both hands, commonly known as “Tian Gong.”
4. Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva (NT$8): A symbol of compassion, she has vowed to alleviate suffering by responding to cries for help. The transformative power of compassion she embodies has left its mark deep in people’s hearts. She holds a willow branch in her right hand and a purification jar in her left hand, from which she sprinkles sweet dew to liberate all sentient beings, commonly known as “Guanyin Bodhisattva”.
