Abstract

Yi mythology, as an oral culture, is rooted in the folk belief soil of animism and ancestor worship in all things. Through generations of transmission, it has become a common spiritual heritage of the Yi people. There are description of the origin of heaven and earth, praise of heroic figures, explanation of natural phenomena, and standards of moral and ethical norms in these myths. The wisdom and inspiration contained in these myths have had a profound impact on the production, lifestyle, and values of the Yi people. This article explores the ideological and political education values contained in Yi mythology, including ecology, national spirit, ethics, and morality. It has a positive promoting effect on deeply exploring the educational value of traditional culture and effectively inheriting the excellent traditional culture of the nation.
