从现存碑刻看明清时期洛阳道教世俗化的表现

Observing From Existing Inscriptions the Secularization of Taoism in Luoyang During Ming and Qing Dynasties

从现存碑刻来看,明清时期洛阳道教表现出明显的世俗化倾向。一些传统神祇的功能发生了变化,人们修庙、立碑与祈神的功利性增强,道教所祀的具有特殊社会功能的神祇日益众多,并出现了花神、薄姬等有着明显洛阳地域特点的神灵。伦理意识强化,儒学色彩浓厚,社会功能增强,体现出道教积极干预现实的努力。洛阳道教的世俗化,使道教获得了更为广泛的民众支持。

Observed from the perspective of the existing inscriptions,Taoism in Luoyang in the Ming and Qing Dynasties showed definite secularization tendencies. The functions of some traditionally worshiped gods changed,and the utilitarianism such as constructing temples,erecting monuments and praying for God were strengthened. The gods bearing special social functions such as flower god and Boji of the Taoism with distinct characteristics in Luoyang region appeared to be numerous. The ethical consciousness enhancement,Confucianism dotted with strong color and the social function enrichment reflected the efforts of Taoism to intervene in social realities. Secularization of Taoism in Luoyang enabled Taoism to gain a broader public support.
