图书简介
本书讲述了这样一个故事:在很久很久以前,天灾人祸遍及藏区,妖魔鬼怪横行,黎民百姓遭受荼毒。大慈大悲的观世音菩萨为了普渡众生出苦海,向阿弥陀佛请求派夭神之子下凡降魔。神子推巴噶瓦发愿到藏区,做黑头发藏人的君王——即格萨尔王。为了让格萨尔能够完成降妖伏魔、抑强扶弱、造福百姓的神圣使命,史诗的作者们赋予他特殊的品格和非凡的才能,把他塑造成神、龙、念(藏族原始宗教里的一种厉神)三者合一的半人半神的英雄。格萨尔降临人间后,多次遭到陷害,但由于他本身的力量和诸天神的保护,不仅未遭毒手,反而将害人的妖魔和鬼怪杀死。格萨尔从诞生之日起,就开始为民除害,造福百姓。5岁时,格萨尔与母亲移居黄河之畔,8岁时,岭部落也迁移至此。12岁上,格萨尔在部落的赛马大会上取得胜利,并获得王位,同时娶森姜珠牡为妃。从此,格萨尔开始施展天威,东讨西伐,征战四方,降伏了入侵岭国的北方妖魔,战胜了霍尔国的白帐王、姜国的萨丹王、门域的辛赤王、大食的诺尔王、卡切松耳石的赤丹王、祝古的托桂王等,先后降伏了凡十个“宗”(藏族古代的部落和小帮国家)在降伏了人间妖魔之后,格萨尔功德圆满,与母亲郭姆、王妃森姜珠牡等一同返回天界。
