The simplicity of the temple reveals solemnity and creates a normal religious style for the first time; There is no merit box, it is said that effective citizens are scrambling to tell each other, so Fengxiang tourists are in an endless stream. Beitou Palace was built for Guan (Guan Gong), also known as the main palace, and its architectural momentum is like a temple in the northern part of the mainland. Guan Gong is a famous war general in history and is regarded as a warrior, an excellent financial manager and a patron saint of business. Especially different from other temples, they don't sacrifice or burn paper money. There are many people who ask God for advice, and almost all the underground shopping malls outside the Temple of Heaven are filled with fortune-telling booths, which is a major feature. The Temple of Heaven is located at the intersection of Quan Min East Road and Songjiang Road. It was completed at 1967 and dedicated to the Emperor Pass. Guan Jun, commonly known as Guan Di Ye, was initially admired by Confucianism, and then gradually became a folk god. Soldiers are regarded as Wu Shen, and businessmen are regarded as the God of Wealth. At the same time, he occupies an important position in Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and is the main judge of human good and evil. For Taipei, where industry and commerce are developed, Guan's role as a god of wealth is especially praised, so he is regarded as the patron saint of commerce, with many good men and women and cigarettes everywhere in the territory. Tiangong, commonly known as the ancestral temple, is a special term for Luan Tang, meaning savior. Among the gods in Taiwan Province, Guan is not the only one who is called the patriarch. However, since the times, Taiwan Province people have been paying tribute to Guan. Up to now, there are more than 65,438+040 Guan temples in Taiwan Province, of which Yilan is the largest. The architecture of the Temple of Heaven is simple and solemn. The plaque in the main hall is inscribed with the ink of Tiangong by Yu Youren, and there are five main doors below. It's locked on weekdays, and it's only in the spring and autumn that the door is opened to meet God. Most pilgrims go in and out through the left and right side doors-"Yan Yan" and "Hehe". Near the temple gate, many vendors selling fragrant paper, magnolia flowers, fried rice, fried winter powder and so on are constantly selling and doing business; If you take the underpass, there are many life picture galleries along the street, which are also the characteristics of Xingtiangong area. Entering the temple, it is fragrant and quiet. Compared with the people and cars outside the fence, there is a rare tranquility around the Tiangong. From August 26th, 20 14, there are no more large incense burners and tables for believers in Xingtiangong Temple, nor are they used by believers to burn incense. They all pay homage with their hands folded. As early as 1949, Huang Yun (19 1 1 970; Known as the "Master of Kong Xuan in the Heavenly Palace", Jiutai Street in Taipei (now the intersection of Linsen North Road and Quan Min East Road) has built a small-scale ZhaiLuan Hall with simple folk beliefs. By the early 1960s, Huang Yun planned to expand the ZhaiLuanTang into a temple. However, this private land covering an area of 2,000 ping was converted into reserved land for junior high schools (now emerging junior high schools in Taipei) after * * * began to promote nine-year compulsory education. After consultation, the city * * * adopted the method of exchanging land for land, making this land the original main land of the school, and the private land of Jiutai Street was replaced by the public land that was then the tributary and swamp outside Liugong Town. After obtaining the land for building temples at the northeast corner of Quan Min East Road and Songjiang Road, Huang Yun invited Liao Shicheng, a temple builder with experience in building many temples, to design and build the temple, which was successfully completed on 1968. In fact, as early as 1956, Huang Yun began to build temples of folk beliefs in Beitou (the former site of Pingpu people's farewell) and the Three Gorges, mainly to worship Guan Gong. After the completion of the Tiangong, the three temples headed by Huang Yun are collectively called the Tiangong-the newly built Tiangong in downtown Taipei is called the Tiangong, and the other two are divided Tiangong. Huang Yun, the founder of the religious hall, was born in Quanzhou, and his religious thoughts originated from the orthodox school of Lushan Mountain in Quanzhou. Zhengyi Taoism is a kind of Taoism in Fujian, which combines Lushan method with Taoism and absorbs the secularization of Buddhism. After Zhengyi School came to Taiwan, after a period of blending with Buddhism and Confucianism, it gradually became a "folk belief" in Taiwan Province Province, a "traditional belief and cultural phenomenon of grassroots people, seeking wealth and longevity only for individuals and families". In Taiwan Province Province, the folk belief in the Heavenly Palace has also been classified as Jainism, Luantang or "Confucianism-Taoism" by some experts, because as far as its belief content is concerned, most of them explain the Confucian-Confucian ethical education with brushstrokes and gods, which is compatible with the thoughts of sages, buddhas and immortals, and emphasizes self-cultivation, housekeeping, good deeds and persuasion; That is, to persuade the world, save people's hearts, and correct social bad habits. Tiangong is one of them: the religious attribute is the folk belief of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, showing a fusion of similarities and differences. This phenomenon not only appears in the Tiangong, but also in many other temples in Taiwan Province Province. Even so, many fixed religious activities in the Temple of Heaven are still dominated by Taoist rituals. For example, praying for the Dharma (commonly known as worshipping the bucket), offering sacrifices to Chen Yuan, offering sacrifices to the customs, offering sacrifices to the stars, covering the soul, receiving grandchildren and receiving surprises are all closely related to Taoist rituals. In foreign materials about Taiwan Province Province, the folk beliefs of Jaime, Luantang or Taiwan Province Province, which are similar to the "benefactor" beliefs, are also classified as "Taoism". The worship of the gods in the Heavenly Palace tends to be polytheistic, and some experts belong to the Luantang belief and believe in five benefactors. The so-called "benefactor" is a noun of Luan Tang belief, which means "savior". The five benefactors of Tiangong are as follows: Guan Yunchang introduced Guan Yunchang: Buddhism called Kahlan Bodhisattva, and Taoism called Heaven Emperor. 16 14 years, Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty in China named Guan Yunchang as the "Heavenly Zun Guan Shengdijun in Weiyuan Town, the Great Devil of the Three Realms", so it was also called Guan Shengdijun, or Guandi for short. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the romance novels of the Three Kingdoms rose, and some Taoists called Guan Yunchang the "eighteen jade emperors", that is, eighteen gods. This theory is most prosperous in Quanzhou, Fujian, and the belief in Luan and Tang Dynasties is regarded as the key. Guan Yu (? -220 years), the word cloud is long and the word fairy. Born in Xie Xian County, Hedong (now Yuncheng City, Shanxi Province), he was an important general of Liu Bei's forces in the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The most special thing about Guan Yu is that he has been respected by Chinese culture for generations. Guan Yu was praised by later emperors for his image of loyalty and courage, until he became the "Emperor Wu", so he was also called Guan Sheng Di Jun, Guan Di Jun and Guan Di. Confucianism is regarded as one of the five major Wenchang sites, and it is also regarded as the "holy emperor of Wen Heng", while Taoism is regarded as the "heaven emperor" and "the heaven of Han Yi". Buddhist circles in China regard it as one of the protectors and call it "Galand Bodhisattva". Influenced by the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and other traditional works, it is generally believed that Guan Yu, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei are sworn brothers, and Guan Yu ranks second, so it is also commonly known as Guan Yu, Guan Yu and Guan Yu. Until now, Guan Yu is still widely worshipped in some social groups and occasions. Lv Dongbin introduced Lv Dongbin, one of the Eight Immortals in China's myths and legends. Taoism called Fu You the Great and Luantang called Lu Enzhu. One of the famous Taoist immortals, one of the five northern ancestors of Quanzhen religion, the founder of Quanzhen religion, and the representative of Zhong and Luneidan schools. Formerly known as Yan Lu, (No."Yan" or "Yan"), (also known as Lu Yu), the word Dong Bin,No. Chunyangzi. It is generally believed that Lv Dongbin was born in Zhao Xianli, Yongle County (now Yongle Town, Ruicheng County, Shaanxi Province) on April 14th of the lunar calendar in the year of Bingzi (796, the 12th year of Zhenyuan). Some people say that he was from Jingzhao (now Xi 'an, Shaanxi) in the late Tang Dynasty. Zhang Dan introduced Zhang Dan: Kitchen God is in charge of disasters and complains about life and death. Luan Tang belief is regarded as Zhang Enzhu. Wang Shan introduced Wang Shan: Xu Jing, a true gentleman of the 30th generation of Taoism, was a descendant of Shi Tian, and Luan Tang believed in Wang Enzhu. Yue Fei introduced Yue Fei:/kloc-A famous Song Dynasty star in China in the 2nd century, and Luan Tang was regarded as the master of Yue En. Guan Yunchang is the head of the five benefactors, so the people in Taiwan Province Province also call Guan Yunchang the benefactor, so they often conveniently call Tiangong the "benefactor temple". In addition to the five benefactors in the main hall, the left and right halls of the Temple of Heaven are also dedicated to Guan Yunchang's adopted son Guan Ping and his general Zhou Cang. Therefore, facing the main hall, the gods worshipped in the Heavenly Palace are Guan Ping, Wang Shan, Lv Dongbin, Guan Yunchang, Zhang Dan, Yue Fei and Zhou Cang from right to left. In addition, the Heavenly Palace also worships the Sanqing of Taoism, the Buddha of Buddhism, Confucius of Confucianism and many gods of the three religions. Since its completion, the characteristic Tiangong has become the most visited temple in Taipei and even in northern Taiwan Province Province. In addition to the widely accepted "main belief", the Tiangong itself has some characteristics: it does not burn gold paper or offer sacrifices, which conforms to the modern trend of metropolis. Replace the donation of "adding oil and fragrance" with the Taoist "worship" instrument. The temple is located in the city center with convenient transportation; In the future, there will be a MRT station with the same name and a spacious temple with the size of 2000 ping, which is not as crowded as other temples in Taipei. Take the lead in setting up a religious consortium as a legal entity and establishing its social welfare attributes. Make good use of volunteers, such as serving students and replacing temple deacons with posts. In addition to the above features, Xingtiangong Shopping Mall (commonly known as Fortune-telling Street) in the underpass next to Xingtiangong has become another reason for many tourists (especially Japanese tourists) to visit Xingtiangong. It is worth mentioning that in addition to the religious undertakings including the Palace and the two sub-palaces, and the "Foundation for Promoting the Development of Culture and Education in the Palace" established by 1995, there are two affiliated libraries and the Three Gorges Enzhu Hospital. Xingtiangong Library Dunhua Library and its address: No.9 Dunhua North Road 120 Lane, Taipei. Beitou Branch and Address: No.48, Lane 4, Zhongyang North Road, Beitou District, Taipei. The library that used to be next to the Temple of Heaven is still being renovated for a long time and has been closed until now.
