Analysis of the Beidou Belief in Han Dynasty
-
摘要: 北斗崇拜是两汉时期人们信仰世界的一大内容,不管是文献资料还是出土文物都能清楚地说明这一事实。问题在于为什么崇信北斗,通过梳理材料,大体可知汉代北斗信仰中最有代表性的观念主要有两点,一是北斗为“帝车”,是上天之主宰,在一定意义上也是地上人君的象征;二是北斗为司命帝君,人死后归于北斗门下,其司职类似于后世的地狱阎罗。其中,北斗司命帝君的身份较少被人论及,而这一点恰恰又是对道教北斗本命神信仰影响最大的。同时,搞清楚这一点,能更全面地了解中国古人对身后世界的想象。Abstract: The Beidou belief is an important content of people's belief in Han Dynasty.There are mainly two representative concepts: one is that Beidou is the Emperor's vehicle, which governs the Heaven and represents the emperor;the other is that Beidou is a great immortal, who controls people's life just like Yama.In the past study, scholars seldom analyzed the second aspect about Beidou, which affects Taoism.
