Hong Meng
Hong Meng, Hung Meng, or Hung Mung () is a character in the Daoist text ''Zhuangzi'' and a metaphor for the "primordial world, primeval chaos" in Chinese creation myths. Like many Zhuangist names, Hong Meng is a word play, translated as "Mists-of-Chaos", "Vast Obscurity", "Big Concealment", "Vital Principle", and "Natural Energy". ==Name==
Hong Meng compounds ''hong'' 鴻 "wild goose, swan; vast, great" and ''meng'' 蒙 "covered; ignorant (esp. in childhood), untutored; encounter, receive; (''Yijing'') Hexagram 4". The (ca. 111 CE) ''Hanshu'' biography of the Daoist author Yang Xiong writes Hong Meng as 鴻濛, with the variant Chinese character ''meng'' 濛 "mist, drizzling rain" (sharing the 氵 "water radical in ''hong'' 鴻). In Modern Standard Chinese usage, ''hongmeng'' 鴻蒙 is a literary metonym meaning "primordial world; primeval atmosphere of nature" before Pangu created the world.
