台湾高屏地区灵宝道派的沐浴科仪

Bathing Rituals of the Lingbao Taoist School in Gaoping Area of Taiwan

沐浴科仪是台湾高屏地区拔度法事中最为常见的仪式活动。由于地域分布及法脉传承的不同,高屏地区诸家道坛可大致划分为南北两路。近年来,随着道教行业圈及相关从业人员内部交流的不断加强,两地道坛逐渐融合,以至于科仪文本及行科演法等方面日益趋同。然就沐浴科仪而言,南北两地道坛至今仍保持相对独立的科仪文本和演法传统。通过对两地道坛沐浴科仪本的梳理和考证,我们可知高屏地区沐浴科仪具有传统文献之依据,实与宋元以降道门科仪传统有着千丝万缕的联系。

The bathing ritual is the most common ritual activity in Gaoping area of Taiwan.Due to different geographical distribution and lineage inheritance,Taoist altars in Gaoping area can be roughly divided into two schools:north and south.In recent years,with the continuous strengthening of exchanges within the Taoist circle and relevant practitioners,the two schools of rituals have gradually integrated so that the texts and methods of rituals are becoming increasingly similar.However,as far as bathing rituals are concerned,the north and south still maintain relatively independent texts and performing traditions.Through textual research on the bathing rituals of the two schools,we can know that the bathing rituals in Gaoping area are based on traditional literature and closely related to the traditions of bathing rituals of the Song and Yuan dynasties.
