摘要
民间信仰因缺乏统一教义和组织形式而被杨庆堃先生归为分散性宗教,但是这种分散性的信仰形式却与世俗社会的制度和结构紧密联结在一起。以闽南保生大帝信仰为例,当地民众宣之于口的三个信仰观念——"灵""份"与"缘"以及相关实践,从信仰观念的共享和实践的角度,展示了民间信仰神明与庙宇网络的形成以及民间信仰的弱关系与地缘、血缘强关系的结合,从而围绕神明信仰形成了超越社区、地域甚至跨国的信仰共同体。
Chinese folk beliefs were classified by C.K.Yang as a diffused religion because of the lack of unified teachings and organizational forms.But this kind of diffused beliefs are closely linked to the system and structure of the secular society of China.There is lots of research which explores the relationship between Chinese folk beliefs and social conjunction from the perspective of social organization and social structure.Taking the cult of god Baosheng in Southern Fujian as a case,this article,through the description and analysis of three concepts,Ling,Fenand Yuan,and the related practices,tries to show the formation process of folk beliefs and temple networks,and the bonds between the weak relations of folk beliefs and the strong relations of geography and ties of kin,thus forming a trans-communal,trans-regional and even trans-national belief community surrounding beliefs in deities.
