dc.description.abstract | This paper studies the fortune poems used in Nine Cankui Zush Temple in Lugu Township and Lingguang Temple in Meizhou, so as to explore the type and usage, the correlation between the worship of the Lord and the belief circle, then collects and visits the fortune poems in temples to analyze and compare the fortune poems and poetry.
The study found that the Nine Cankui Zush Temple in the Lugu Township used the fortune poem of 60 years, which is not unique to Hakka temples, and differs from the fortune poem used in the original village Lingguang Temple in Meizhou. It can be seen that the fortune poem was used after the temple was built in Anding. It is derived in response to needs from the simple motive of praying for the God and Buddha to bless the home and grant peace, endowing oracles to the faith activity in the face of uncertain and difficult life.
The belief of the Cankui Zush is that the early Hakka ancestors came to Taiwan by sea and brought with them the deities of the native land, which are mainly distributed in Lugu Township. However, due to the gradual integration of ethnic groups, most of the Hakka people gradually transformed into "Heluo Ke" or "Fuao Ke", without distinct characteristics of the original pattern. Tracing the relevant local cultural history, it can still find the historical materials or evidence that the Hakka ancestors moved to the Lugu Township area in the early period from place names, belief ceremonies, Han opera to local performances. Although most of the people around today′s belief are Minnan people, the fact that the early belief is dominated by Hakka people still cannot be erased. | en_US |
