刘宋武帝与天师道

Emperor Wu of Liu Song Dynasty and Celestial Master Taoism

东晋末年刘裕通过镇压以天师道为旗号的孙恩之乱起家并最终凭借军功建立了刘宋政权,然而刘裕与天师道实又有其他重要关联。刘裕及其姻亲家族均表现出信奉天师道之痕迹,此外,刘裕代晋造宋在军事政治上所依赖之重要人物亦表现出与天师道的密切关系,天师道信仰在某种程度上成为其政治上结合的重要纽带。

Liu Yu suppressed the upheaval leaded by Sun En in late Eastern Jin Dynasty,and ulti-mately established Liu Song regime relying on such military feats.However,there were other impor-tant association between Liu Yu and Celestial Master Taoism.The Liu royal family and Liu＆#39;s marriage family all showed traces of belief in Celestial Master Taoism.In addition,the important persons whom Liu Yu relied on militarily and politically in the process of establishing his new regime also dis-played close relationship with Celestial Master Taoism,which means the belief in Celestial Master Ta-oism was to some extent an important link in their political combination.
