Mongol creation myth
the founding myth that has been raging in mongolia speaks of the creation of the world: the world began with an ocean of water.
wazir baniver (held by king kong) found the white diving bird in the sky and ordered it to dive into the sea floor to find the dirt, after which he used it to create the world with the power of his linguistic spell.
diving birds also drag giant turtles from the bottom of the sea as a place of creation.

among the other myths of the mongolian people, it was also said that burhan bagsy (fouzu) or mujahideen had created the world by scattering a patch of dirt over the ocean; then, the world grew grass and everything, and finally human beings emerged.
the role of vazir barnivor or qalaouni in the preservation of the briat mongolia mythology of the samanian tradition was assumed by the “eh burkhan” — the mother god, the ancient samaman god.
it's a classic "scuba-diving mud myth." as mythologists have long pointed out, this myth is the myth that saturn created the world — the creation god created the world with the power of a language spell.
the origins of mongolia ' s founding myths are thus very old, but the influence of buddhism is also evident in many foreign languages.
in the mythology of mongolia, the origins of human beings are almost all linked to the creation of the world, and the creation of creations by god after the creation of the world, and the emergence of human beings after grass and animals, which in fact implies the separation of human beings from animals.
the ancient diving myths that are affected by buddhism are also reciprocated by myths of the origin of the world and myths about human degradation, which are derived directly from buddhist scriptures.
for example, in some mythical texts, it is said that the world was created by a confusion at the beginning of the world, then by ablaze and decomposition, and that human beings, like god, were able to fly freely and glowed, then ate rice from the ground, lost light on their bodies and the ability to fly, and the world turned dark.
then buddha created the sun and the moon, lighted the world and saved mankind.
the myth is mainly transmitted through buddhism into the mongolian region and is written in almost all mongolian buddhist history books.
the myths of mongolia's creation speak not only of the world and the origins of humankind, but also of the stars of the sun and the moon, the most famous of which are the myths of the archers of the zhighi mozhagan and the milky way and the seven stars of beidou.
the myths of essae mozhgen have many variants.
for example, in some variations, it is said that there are seven suns in the world and that there has been drought; the archer, black morzhen, decided to shoot seven suns and vowed, “if i don't shoot all seven suns down, i will cut off my thumbs and go into a hole in the ground and turn into an otter.” darker mozhgen shot the sun one by one, but as he was about to shoot the seventh, swallows blocked the sun, and darker mozhgen shot its tail and the last sun survived.
there are also variations that say that seven stars appear in the sky and that the ground becomes colder than ever before, so el-hair mozhgen shoots seven stars.
the sun and the stars, noWhether it is a drought or a cold, Eid Morzhen is a tragic hero for bringing the world back to normal.
In the myths of the Milky Way and the Seven Stars of Beidou, it was said that in ancient times thousands of troops had moved to the West in pursuit of cattle and sheep, walking and moving to the sky.
The way they walk is the Milky Way in the sky.
At that time, HOPE and De Mozhgen Khan were also on their way with the army and hunted and hunted countless prey.
The three stars of the Orion constellation are said to be the three deer who were chased by the callers and the bee moygen, and the other three go with the deer, and they are followed by the hounds and the bee moygen.
The Beidou Seven is said to be a pony with two horses tied to Di Mozhen and seven elderly men who guard two horses each night.
This myth is well known among Mongolians, who interpret the history of the Milky Way, Samsung and Beidou seven stars in a unique image of the nomadic nomadic and hunting culture。
