土地公 Tudigong (Fudezhengshen)

圖片
    土地公是一種始於對土地崇敬而生的神祇崇拜,在世界各地的原始部落均存在著類似的自然信仰。   Tudigong  (the Land God) is a kind of god worship that originated from the reverence of the land, and there are similar natural beliefs in primitive tribes all over the world.   在以務農為生的地區,土地公的信仰尤為普遍,又因地區不同,而有許多不同的稱呼,諸如土地尊神、伯公、福德正神、土地公公......等。 In areas where farmers make a living, the belief in the land master is particularly common, and there are many different names depending on the region, such as the god of the land, the bogong, the god of good fortune, the god of the land, and so on.   台灣民間信仰中,無論士農工商都有人在供奉土地公,農曆的初一、十五或初二、十六,信眾也都會到居家附近的土地公廟進行祭祀。 In Taiwanese folk beliefs, no matter whether it is a scholar, a farmer, a worker or a businessman, there are people who worship the Tudigong. On the first and fifteenth days of the lunar calendar or on the second and sixteenth days of the lunar calendar, believers will also go to the Tudigong Temple near their homes to perform sacrifices.   農曆二月初二(土地公生日)及八月十五日(土地公得道升天日)更會舉行相關慶典...

土地婆 Tudipo (the Land Lady)

圖片
    本宮土地婆神尊於本宮初建完成時,即伴祠在土地公側。   When the first construction of this tample was completed, Tudipo (the Land Lady) was consecrated by the side of Tudigong.   與土地婆相關廣為流傳的傳說有二:   There are two widely circulated legends related to Tudipo:   土地公見民間窮人生活困苦,打算 將財富平均分配,但土地婆卻加以阻止,祂認為 這世間本來就應該有貧富的區別, 如果人人都富有,便沒有人願意做基本出賣勞力的工作。 所以民間便維持著貧富差別,為此長貧者不喜土地婆。   Tudigong sees the poor living conditions of the people and intends to distribute the wealth equally, but Tudipo stops it. She believes that there should be a distinction between the rich and the poor in this world. If everyone were rich, no one would like to do work that basically sells labor. Therefore, there is still a gap between the rich and the poor among the people. For this reason, the poor do not like the land woman.   另一則為土地公看見喪家的家人哭得非常傷心, 起了惻隱之心,想讓死者復活。被土地婆阻止,並 說:「若這世界只有生沒有死,那將來不就人滿為患了」。 土地公也覺得有道理,便打消了這個念頭,所以有 人責怪土地婆多嘴。   The other legend was Tudigone seeing the bereaved family who cried sadly. Tudigone felt sympathy and wanted to brin...

媽祖 Mazu

圖片
    四面環海的台灣,海上活動頻繁,海神信仰在追求出入平安的需求下自然發達,加之平埔族人的母系社會影響,以女性意象存在的媽祖神尊更是受到尊崇。    Taiwan is surrounded by the sea with frequent maritime activities. Therefore, faith in the sea is naturally developed in the purpose of pursuing safety at sea. In addition, Pingpu, the Taiwanese Plains Indigenous People is a matriarchal society. Due to the above reasons, the goddess Mazu, who exists in the image of women, is even more respected.   媽祖信仰圈已成為東亞海洋經濟及社會結構形成的歷史見證之一,2009年10月,媽祖信仰更入選聯合國教科文組織人類非物質文化遺產代表作名錄,足見媽祖信仰國際化的深遠程度。    The Mazu belief circle has become one of the historical witnesses of the formation of the marine economy and social structure in East Asia. In October 2009, Mazu belief was further selected into the UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, which shows how far-reaching the internationalization of Mazu belief is. ------------------------------------- 本宮其他神尊介紹: other gods in this templ...

外土地 Wai Tudi

圖片
    「外土地」是對宮內石雕土地公的別稱,本宮主祠的福德正神神尊曾被稱為 「內土地」。外土地右手持杖,左手握元寶,意在護祐田野收成豐碩。   "Wai Tudi (Outer Land)" is another name for the stone carving Tudigong in the temple. The deity of Fukuzhengjin (Land God) in the main shrine of this temple was once called "Nei Tudi (Inner Land). Wai Tudi, he holds a staff in his right hand and an ingot in his left hand, which is intended to protect the fields and harvests.   外土地原處之五福宮位於今萬板路往台北方向的道路上,過812號門口近818巷口,原廟身背向環河路。因萬板橋興建拆除廟體,地方人士便將外土地神尊及五福宮神桌迎至本宮安座。   The Wufu Temple, the original place of Wai Tudi, is located on the road from Wanban Road to Taipe, past the exit of No. 812 and close to the entrance of Lane 818. The original temple body faces Huanhe Road. Due to the construction and demolition of the temple body at Wanban Bridge, local people welcomed the gods of Wai Tudi and the god table of the Wufu Palace to this temple to be seated. -------------------------------------------------------   台灣部份務農地區,會於中秋節早上在田頭祭拜土地公,並插上竹子做為 「土地公拐 杖 」。竹子上方故...

文武判官 Civil and Military Judges

圖片
     傳統社會的信眾將土地公視為地方父母神,不管生、老、病、死、訂盟、考試、求職、求官、求財,往往都會向土地公稟明並求其庇佑。為了使土地公能從容細緻的處理所有大、小瑣事,部份土地公廟會配祀文武判官,來協助土地公分擔業務,並調查人間善惡。    Believers in traditional societies regard Tudigong as the local parent god. Regardless of birth, old age, sickness, death, alliances, examinations, job search, official search, and wealth, they will often declare to Tudigong and ask for its blessing. In order to enable Tudigong to handle all the big and small trivial matters calmly and meticulously, part of Tudigong temple will be equipped with Civil and Military Judges to assist the land public to share the business and investigate the good and evil in the world.    文武判分列土地公兩側,文判在左,武判在右,有如土地公的左右手。(由參拜者的角度看文判在右,武判在左)文判負責如師爺性質的文書業務,而武判則有些像護衛,專門衝鋒陷陣,緝兇擊惡;亦因工作性質不同,所以在造形上也就有了很大差異。    The Civil and Military Judges are divided into two sides of Tudigong. The Civil Judge is on the left and the Military Judge is on the right, just like the right and left hand of Tudigong. (From the perspective of the worshippers, Civi...
