  • The Religion of Confucius
    chapter 3 Popular Groups Promoting “The Religion of Confucius” in the Chinese Southwest and Their Activities since the Nineteenth Century (1840–2013): An Observation Centered on Yunnan’s Eryuan County and Environs Wang Chien-Chuan Scholars have held that since the late Qing era, a succession of popular1 Confucian groups have emerged and been preserved in China, for exam- ple, Chen Huanzhang’s Confucian Church (kongjiaohui 孔教會) and Zong Shedang’s Confucius Society (Kongshe 孔社). In fact, before these groups existed, there were quite a few other Confucianist groups of this kind in many parts of China, dedicated to passing down Confucian teachings and enlighten- ing the masses. Examples include Sacred Edict halls (Shengyu tang 聖諭堂), focused on the preaching of sacred edicts; and phoenix halls (luan tang 鸞堂), which sought to enlighten the masses through planchette writing (spirit writ- ing). This Confucian (rujia) culture with Confucius at its center penetrated most deeply into China’s rural civil society. However, such groups have been neglected by scholars researching Chinese culture, and even explorers of Rujia culture have turned a blind eye to them. The present study has two objectives: The first is to provide a brief outline of Confucian groups and their activities in Sichuan, Yunnan and other por- tions of China’s southwest from the late Qing period until 1949, revealing this hidden period in the history of Confucianism, and presenting the infil- tration of Rujia culture among the lower-strata masses and the multi-variant * Editor’s note (EN): Some discussions in this chapter echo another chapter of the same author translated by Vincent Goossaert elsewhere.
