Title: Can someone share the story of Yang'asha?
Post by: aoubee on June 13, 2019, 03:06:06 PM

I remembered the Miao goddess of beauty statue that went up a couple years ago and thought I do more research on this historical Miao figure.

Supposedly Yang'asha symbolizes life and love and the Miao people in Jianhe county knows the story (http://en.people.cn/n3/2017/0417/c90000-9203828.html) (http://en.people.cn/n3/2017/0417/c90000-9203828.html)).
 I tried searching up her story and the history but cannot find it anywhere. Either that or it is in Chinese and I don't read or speak Chinese.

If anyone knows the story, can you please share? Very curious right now to how she became a symbol of life and love and how/why she is  a Miao goddess of beauty.
