印度尼西亚华人社会孔教的兴起

The Origination of Confucianism in the Chinese Society in Indonesia

印尼孔教源于中国儒学,是印尼一部分土生华人特有的宗教形式与文化认同标志。中国儒学在印尼的传播,伴随着印尼华人社会形成的过程,起初是通过华人家庭、庙堂、宗祠的祭祀和家庭、私塾、书院的文化教育。19世纪末至20世纪初,随着印尼华人民族意识觉醒,开始自觉地维护华人文化传统,出现了第一个正式的孔教组织——巴达维亚中华会馆,明确宣布孔教为印尼华人的宗教,确立了孔教的基本教义;泗水文庙则开始实施每星期做礼拜的孔教仪式。

The Indonesia Confucianism, originated from China, is a special religion and cultural identity mark for the native Chi- nese in Indonesia. The Confucianism had spread in Indonesia at first by the Chinese families, temples, ancestral halls, and culture educations in the formation process of Chinese society. The first formal Confucianism group, the Badaweiya Chinese Guild Hall declared definitely that the Confucianism is the religion for the Chinese people in Indonesia and the religious doctrine had been formulated in the end of the 19th century. The Sishui Confucian Temple began to carry on the ceremony of the Confucianism weekly.
