In China, the Dragon is also
referred to as the lung, and this creature has a majestically long body with glistening scales, the legs of a bird with different numbers of claws and horns, and which breathes fire. Descriptions of the Chinese Dragon originate from Chinese folklore, and they are regarded with great fondness. Te Chinese Dragon is considered a benevolent creature, who is high up the pecking order in the hierarchy of real and mythical creatures. It has celestial stature and has been associated with the Emperors of China and the Imperial throne since antiquity. Historically, the iconography of the Imperial Dragon is interesting in that only the Imperial dragon is depicted with five claws. According to Feng Shui, the celestial Dragon is the ultimate good luck symbol and it features in all the Chinese divination sciences. THE PARANORMAL ZONE,
a popular TV series in Malaysia which explores unexplained phenomena, is airing a very special presentation that examines the legend of the Dragon right here in Malaysia. In a double episode on Dragons, Phng Li Kim, the sparkling and dynamic host of Te Paranormal Zone, explores this challenging subject and discusses the Dragon of mythical lore and ancient legend.
Li Kim shares that “When I first received the manuscript on Dragons,
Li Kim interviews Lillian on “The Paranomal Zone” TV show.
I was reluctant to follow through with its investigation. But something within me urged me to continue, and after some thought, I decided to trust my inner voice.” Her research included meetings
with Antares, an author, musician and cosmic mythologist, Mr Tapa, a survivor and witness of the Pos Dipang mudslide tragedy in 1996 and whose father was a shaman of the Orang Asli or indigenous people, and Russell Chen, a young story-teller and Dragon researcher.
The East &
West have very different views of the Dragon.
It was only natural that Li Kim was drawn to discuss this exciting and mysterious topic with international best- selling author and feng shui expert, Lillian Too. After all, Lillian has had over 35 years of research in the intriguing subject of Dragons, having published a book on Dragons herself called The Chinese Dragon in 1987. Lillian agreed to be featured in The Paranormal Zone’s episode on Dragons, and was more than happy to share her knowledge with Li Kim.
