中国传统神秘文化论略

A Brief Discussion on Chinese Traditional Mysterious Culture

传统神秘文化有广义和狭义之分。狭义上指的是历代的谶纬、巫蛊、方术、命相、风水、星占、丹汞、养生等形而下的"术",带有工具的性质;广义上则包括哲学层面的世界观和方法论以及思维模式。本文所说的狭义传统神秘文化,指的是产生于过去,却在今天仍然发挥着影响和作用的、通常被主流社会视为"封建迷信"的一种文化存在,突出的是"传统",其特征是"神秘"。它最早的文化源头是古老的巫术文化,其理论基础是传统哲学中的天人感应理论与阴阳五行学说等神秘主义理论,其思维模式是中国古代传统思维模式。这形成了神秘文化的悠久性、广泛性、封闭性、复杂性和功利性等特征。

Traditional mysterious culture has broad sense and narrow sense.Narrow sense refers to the ancient chenwei,demagogic witchery and arts of necromancy,fateful appearance,Fengshui,astrology,and alchemy keeping in shape under the ＂Arts＂ with the nature of the tool;Broad sense includes philosophical world outlook and methodology as well as on the level of thinking mode.Traditional mysterious culture refers to the past,but continues to play today.It is often regarded as a coexistence of ＂feudal superstition＂ by mainstream society which is prominently,＂traditional＂,but characterized by ＂magic＂.Originally,it is the cultural source of ancient witchcraft traditions in the philosophy of culture,which is the basis of the induction theories of heaven and man and the theory of yin and Yang and theory of five elements of mystery.Its composition is the ancient Chinese traditional thinking mode of thinking,which formed a long,extensive and closed nature of a mysterious culture.
