Abstract

Huapo myth is a kind of social and historical narrative in Zhuang’s pedigree on gods worship,which contains rich eco-ethical meanings of Zhuang nationality. With the same meaning of Gods and human beings, along with the contradiction among them, several eco-ethical concluding paradigms of Zhuang nationality can be deduced: Yi-sheng, Jing-sheng and Zheng-sheng. Extracting eco-ethical concluding paradigms from Huapo myth helps find out Zhuang’s eco-wisdom in the sublimation of man-land relationship; meanwhile, it helps understand Zhuang’s living wisdom. Furthermore, the merging of these eco-ethical paradigms and worldwide wisdom provides an appropriate thinking path to solve the ecological crisis.
