Research On The Faith Construction Of Ming God In Rongcheng,Shandong Province

Chishan Ming Shen is a folk belief that has been influential in the Rongcheng District of Shandong Province for more than a decade.The influence has affected both Japan and South Korea.For such an international local deity,there is currently no specific research work in China.Based on the characteristics of the contemporary construction of the belief in the belief of the god of Chishan,and the continuous attention of the academic community to the phenomenon of folklore construction in recent years,the author uses a combination of literature and field surveys to comprehensively apply the knowledge of folklore,sociology,anthropology,and religious studies.From the perspective of construction,we studied the belief of the god of the Ming Dynasty in Chishan.The Rongcheng ' s local geographical environment,the geographical location near Japan and South Korea,and the cultural background of advocating the magical arts and crafts provide a solid foundation of belief and a rich cultural soil for the contemporary construction of the faith of the Chishan Mythology.The origin of the Japanese Chishan Ming God should be the result of the localization of ancient Chishan local gods.There is no clear evidence of the existence of the Chishan Ming God faith in Chishan and other places in the country.Therefore,to a certain extent,contemporary Chishan Gods are "borrowed".The gods from Japan "borrowed" to the name "Mingshan Ming Shen," and injected traditional Chinese culture with blood and added local characteristics.This is a process of output and return,localization and anti-localization.Folk beliefs have been transformed from "feudal superstitions" to "intangible cultural heritage ".The trend of cultural resources has boosted the development of folk tourism.The change of villages in " Hua Cun" in the past century has led to the decline of local traditional folk beliefs and old age.The emergence of "empty nesting"phenomenon.These have become important social contexts for the successful construction of beliefs in the Ming God of Chishan.The participating subjects of the contemporary construction of Chishan' s belief in the god of the Ming dynasty are pluralist,and at the same time,they show clear interactivity.The government took charge of the demonstration of the identity of the god Akita in the late 1980s.The identity of the local god of Chishan and the subsequent evaluation of the intangible cultural heritage of the legendary legend of the legendary Chishan legend gave the legitimacy of the belief in the belief of the god of the Qing Mountain.The promotion of Chishan Ming God in the tourism promotion of Chishan Scenic Area in Chishan Scenic Area also played a role in fueling the development;the enterprise is the most important participant in the construction of the Chishan Mythological beliefs.Under the operation of the Chishan Group,the Chishan Gods' sacred objects and the sacred space To be constructed,the Legend of the Chishan Mythology was created in a large number of ways.The practice of the ceremony was not successful,but it also played a certain constructive effect;the local intellectual elite was responsible for its own responsibility and cultural consciousness,and wrote books and legends to the Chishan.The construction of the belief of the Ming God has had a certain influence;ordinary villagers often passively accept and individualize the unconscious construction in the process of constructing the Belief of the Ming God of the Red Mountains.Some sensational stories are widely spread.Although Chishan' s belief in Ming God may incur criticism of "pseudo-folk",it does not erase the rationality of his existence.The faith of Chishan Mingjin has injected new vitality into the development of the local tourism economy,led to employment,increased the economic income of the local villagers,and provided for the local elderly under the background of " empty nesting" and aging,with the decline of traditional beliefs.There is one more choice for spiritual comfort.It also made certain contributions to the protection of Rongcheng ' s local folk traditional culture.
