Pangu is a prominent figure in Chinese creation mythology. To this day, the Zhuang people sing a traditional song about Pangu creating the Heaven and Earth. The origin of the Pangu myth has been much debated. Many believe it originated with Xu Zheng, a Chinese author from the 3 rd century AD, as he was the first writer known to record it; some propose that it originated in the mythologies of the Miao or Yao people of southern China, while others see a parallel to ancient Hindu mythology of creation.

The Pangu myth follows as thus: In the beginning the universe was nothing but chaos, and the heavens and the earth were intermingled-a big black egg being commonly used as an analogy. Pangu was born inside of this egg and slept for 18,000 years, during which time the Yin and Yang balanced as he grew. When he awoke, he realized he was trapped within it. He cracked the egg and began to push it apart, essentially splitting the Yin and Yang. The upper half of the shell became the sky above him, and the lower half became the earth. The longer he held them apart, the thicker they grew and the taller he became, thus pushing them further apart-by precisely 10 feet per day. Here versions begin to change. Some claim that a turtle, a qilin, phoenix, and a dragon assisted him in this task. After another 18,000 years Pangu died, his body forming the various parts of the earth, and the parasites on his body forming humans. Another version states that he formed the earth with a chisel and hammer, while yet another version states that a goddess who later inhabited the earth formed humans.
Pangu is depicted with a turtle, phoenix, quilin, and dragon, who aided him with his task.
According to this myth, Pangu was the first supreme being and the originator of the heavens and the Earth. He is typically depicted as a dwarf-though he was actually a giant-covered in hair or bearskin or leaves, with horns fixed atop his head and either a chisel or a hammer or an egg in his hand. Other tales speak of a Pangu as a creature from heaven that had the head of a dog and the body of a man and directly accredits Pangu as the father of mankind, while another version claims he molded men from clay.

The interesting aspects of this tale are its similarities to other myths. For example, the cosmic egg is a common concept that is indicative of the universe before the Big Bang occurred, scientifically speaking. While this may, at first glance, be a very primitive way of describing such an event, one cannot help but notice how very insightful it is. How did various people with no apparent technology or knowledge of the universe, as we modern humans know it, so accurately explain what we now can? Were they made privy to this knowledge somehow?

Another interesting aspect of the tale is one of the more elusive. Some versions of the Pangu creation myth state that the giant had help from four mythical beasts. Let us take a brief look these beasts one by one. First, the turtle: the Chinese were not the only ones to use it in their creation myth; various world myths, creation and otherwise, include the turtle for its strength and immortality. The qilin, though indigenous to Asian mythology, is said to have been dragon-like. Of course, dragons are central to Asian mythology-though also found world-wide-as bearers of wisdom and a symbol of power, also connected to the succession of the early emperors. Finally, the phoenix has consistently been a symbol of rebirth. How so many cultures separated by thousands of miles came to describe such similar occurrences and use the same symbology has been a subject of much intrigue over the centuries.

If you've taken the New York City subway, you might have seen a person get on the train and start talking about Jesus. Jesus is the son of God. Jesus loves you. Jesus died for your sin. 'God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.' On and on the person goes until a few stops later, the sermon ends with have a blessed day.

What is Jesus about? He was a servant of God. He served God. He served God by serving people. He came to serve, not to be served. What does Jesus expect from us? Jesus himself said to 'Obey one another within the words of the Lord'. God expects obedience. This would not be possible unless you no longer trust in yourself.

You can know and trust yourself to be successful while here, or as Jesus says, 'Deny, yourself take up your cross and follow Me'. Go get nailed to a cross that you might pay the price for going to heaven to live there forever.

This is the word of God, gospel, Jesus brought to serve, to show by example. Jesus says 'Every man is a born sinner'. How can a born sinner be rewarded? By renouncing his sinful nature and following in the footstep of Jesus. Jesus says 'Unless you go through me, you shall in no way see the kingdom of heaven'.

Jesus says 'Sell all that you have, give it to the needy and follow after me'. 'You cannot worship God and money'. Either you'll enjoy this world or enjoy heaven. Jesus says 'Either you're with me or against me'. He also says 'Love your enemies'. This you cannot do unless you've met Jesus. You serve God by serving people, even the ones that persecute you.

No one wants to be persecuted. Nobody likes to be a servant. We would all rather be served. Apostle Paul calls himself a slave of God. He spent years as a Roman prisoner and was ultimately decapitated. Joseph, after he was thrown into a pit and sold as a slave by his own brothers, spent years in prison. Sampson, betrayed by Delilah and eyes gouged out, became a slave for the Philistines, enemies he used to kill.

We would all rather fast-forward through slavery. We would rather just celebrate that letters Paul wrote while a prisoner ended up in the Bible, that Joseph was later put in charge of Egypt, that Sampson regained his strength and with the help of Delilah, brought down the Philistine palace, ending his own life. They all became a slave in this world, a servant of God.

All this happened because of the love of God. 'God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.'

Later, the festival became more and more popular and was celebrated national wide.

Chang E's husband, Hou Yi was rewarded the elixir of immortality for shooting down the extra nine suns which tortured people a lot. But he would not like become immortal alone and left his wife to live in the heaven, so he gave the elixir to Chang E to keep it well. Unfortunately, one of Hou Yi's followers got to know it. One a 15th day of the 8th lunar month when Hou Yi went out hunting, that follower sneaked into Hou Yi and Cheng E's home and forced Chang E to handed over the elixir. Unhelpfully, Chang E ate the elixir, became an immortal and uncontrollably left the earth for the heaven. As she didn't want to leave her husband, she flew to the moon, the closest place to the earth in the heaven.

A new double LP of the CITY LIGHTS soundtrack is now available as part of the collection of Chaplin film soundtrack vinyls we are producing in collaboration with [PIAS] France. This deluxe edition includes two 180g vinyls (in full mono), rare bonus materials and a 24-page booklet illustrated with photographs and documents from the Chaplin Archive.

The new 4K restoration of A WOMAN OF PARIS has just been released on blu-ray and DVD by POTEMKINE films in France.

This exciting edition includes a recently recorded soundtrack based upon Chaplin's 1976 score for the film and on a selection of his 1952-1969 composition sketches, restored, orchestrated, and conducted by Timothy Brock. According to Brock, "Over the course of many weeks I aurally transcribed what Chaplin was working out on the piano, and identified about 14 finished compositions and about 20 un-finished, or incomplete, musical ideas. It is these pieces, in conjunction with some of the 1977 score, that make up the new posthumous score, 100% composed by Chaplin. I developed the new score as best I could in the Chaplin earmarks and idioms, and orchestrated it in the model of CITY LIGHTS, which was Chaplin's earliest personal attempt at orchestration, some 8 years after A WOMAN OF PARIS." Recording by the Orchestra Città Aperta. Audio Post Production by l'Immagine Ritrovata.

Bonus materials:
- Introduction by David Robinson (5')
- Chaplin Today: A Woman of Paris - Documentary by Mathias Ledoux with the participation of Liv Ullmann. (27')
- Presentation of rare archives with commentary by Arnold Lozano of the Chaplin Office (9')
- Outtakes
- United Artists signature archival footage

Professor Lisa Stein Haven takes us back to The Early Years of Charlie Chaplin, her latest book just released by White Owl (an imprint of Pen & Sword Books).
Charlie Chaplin's career has been described, critiqued, and scrutinized. There are book-length studies on Chaplin's music hall career, his career at Keystone Studios and the Mutual Studios. Somehow, his tenure with First National, however, has been largely neglected, even though it was during this several-year contractual time period that Chaplin built and occupied his own studio for the first time, that he attempted and succeeded in filming a comedy feature (The Kid) and that he helped to set up United Artists, an organization that protected the salaries and creative freedom of actors in Hollywood. This period in Chaplin's story is especially interesting because such landmark moments are accompanied by Chaplin's first marriage and divorce, the death of his first child, his friendship with French silent film comedian Max Linder , World War I and the role he would play in it, and the production and release of several unsuccessful films that marked Chaplin's first creative blockage - one that threatened his future career.

This book discusses the transitional periods just before and after the First National contract, as well as the all-important period satisfying it. Archival evidence provides most of the support for the book's assertions, from the Chaplin archive (property of Roy Export, digitised by Cineteca di Bologna, Italy), and the personal archives of other individuals or institutions discussed. Rare photos illustrate the story.
