  • The Heritage of Non-Theistic Belief in China

    The Heritage of Non-Theistic Belief in China

    The Heritage of Non-theistic Belief in China Joseph A. Adler Kenyon College Presented to the international conference, "Toward a Reasonable World: The Heritage of Western Humanism, Skepticism, and Freethought" (San Diego, September 2011) Naturalism and humanism have long histories in China, side-by-side with a long history of theistic belief. In this paper I will first sketch the early naturalistic and humanistic traditions in Chinese thought. I will then focus on the synthesis of these perspectives in Neo-Confucian religious thought. I will argue that these forms of non-theistic belief should be considered aspects of Chinese religion, not a separate realm of philosophy. Confucianism, in other words, is a fully religious humanism, not a "secular humanism." The religion of China has traditionally been characterized as having three major strands, the "three religions" (literally "three teachings" or san jiao) of Confucianism, Daoism, and Buddhism. Buddhism, of course, originated in India in the 5th century BCE and first began to take root in China in the 1st century CE, so in terms of early Chinese thought it is something of a latecomer. Confucianism and Daoism began to take shape between the 5th and 3rd centuries BCE. But these traditions developed in the context of Chinese "popular religion" (also called folk religion or local religion), which may be considered a fourth strand of Chinese religion. And until the early 20th century there was yet a fifth: state religion, or the "state cult," which had close relations very early with both Daoism and Confucianism, but after the 2nd century BCE became associated primarily (but loosely) with Confucianism.
  • Introduction

    Introduction

    CHAPTER 1 Introduction It was in the chilly morning of 3 March 2004, hundreds of men and women nervously waited in a magnificent ballroom. Outside the building, more than ten thousand men and women patiently lined up in prepara- tion to welcome their distinguished guests. When presidential candidate Lian Zhang and vice presidential candidate James Song arrived, the crowd’s emotion exploded with thundering applause and repeated shouts of: “Lian-Song, Dongswan!” (which means “winning the election” in Tai- wanese dialect.) Joyful tears ran down on their faces like waterfalls. The solemn host rose and made an inspiring welcome speech. He vehemently accused President Chen Shui-bian for his miserable economic perfor- mance, disasterous social policies, acrimonious ethnic maneuvers, viola- tions of religious rights, sabbotage of democracy, and provocation of war in the Taiwan Straits. Fists clenched, he spoke loudly and with exaggerated body language. Bitterness, anger, and frustration permeated the air and the crowd’s mind. “Only Lian Zhang can save us from these political, social, and economic disasters,” he emphatically concluded. During his speech, the crowd echoed every sentence the host said with deafening applause and “Lian-Song, Dongswan.”1 This might have been any of the ordinary campaign gatherings dur- ing an ordinary election in an ordinary democracy. But this campaign was anything but ordinary. The hall was not at the headquarters of any politi- cal party but at the center of a newly constructed Buddhist temple worth US$ 300 million. The emotional men and women were not devoted party workers or representatives, but monks, nuns, and sincere believers of the otherwise tranquil temple.

It includes a historical account of fengshui over the last 150 years with anthropological fieldwork on contemporary practices in two Fengshui in China in China Chinese rural areas. The author argues that fengshui serves as an alternative tradition of cosmological knowledge to explain a range geomantic Divination between state of everyday occurrences in rural areas such as disease, mental Orthodoxy and Popular Religion disorders, accidents and common mischief. Although Chinese authorities have opposed the tradition for centuries, it has been used by almost everyone as an aspect of popular cosmology. This paperback edition of the 2003 hardback introduces new material, responding to the evolving scholarly debate and reflecting changes in Chinese society, culture and beliefs. ‘This valuable study will be required reading for scholars of Chinese religion, and makes a valuable contribution to the anthropology of religion.’ – Joseph Bosco, ‘East Asia’ ‘[This book] offers significant insights into the working of diverse coexisting traditions ...

    Political Myth and Religious Beliefs in a Ritual of Ancestor Worship in Huizhou, China

    Political Myth and Religious Beliefs in a Ritual of Ancestor Worship in Huizhou, China THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Wei Liu Graduate Program in East Asian Languages and Literatures The Ohio State University 2017 Thesis Committee: Mark A. Bender, Advisor Meow Hui Goh Copyrighted by Wei Liu 2017 Abstract Ancestor worship is a common tradition in Anhui, China and its relevant ritual practices constitute an important part of local popular religion. It is now experiencing revival along with a flourishing of popular religion across mainland China in the wake of the reform era. Cultural and religious researchers have generated much interest in this widespread social phenomenon. They explain it as an attempt to fill a “spiritual vacuum” or simply as an effort to garner political and economic benefits. But I argue that we should avoid lumping a great variety of beliefs and practices together under the name of “popular religion,” trying to explain them as a whole. Instead, we must address the variety of form and theoretical significance of these practices. Examination of a particular form of local ritual can yield new and different insights into a set of cultural and social values behind it. This paper studies the symbolic meanings of the objects and behaviors in a style of ritual performance of ancestor worship in a small village of Huizhou area in eastern China. To analyze the symbolic meanings of this ritual and its social meanings, I use the performance approach and social analysis of ideological discourse to point out that there are religious and political realities intertwined and embodied in these performances.

    Researching the Image of the Yellow Emperor in China's Early

    Journal of chinese humanities 3 (���7) 48-7� brill.com/joch Researching the Image of the Yellow Emperor in China’s Early Textual Sources and Archaeological Materials Su Xiaowei 蘇曉威 Associate Professor of Language and Culture, Tianjin University, China [email protected] Translated by Caterina Weber Abstract In China’s early textual sources and archaeological materials, the Yellow Emperor 黄帝 appears in the following three contexts: in genealogical records, among predynastic rulers, and in sacrificial rituals. The earliest appearance of the Yellow Emperor is prob- ably in genealogical records; then, after being an ancestral ruler, he becomes the earliest emperor and a legendary ruler. This demonstrates his shift from an ancestral context to a monarchic context and illustrates the gradual yet colossal shift in ancient Chinese political thought from a system of enfeoffment built on blood relations to a system of prefectures and counties based on regional ties. The image of the Yellow Emperor in the context of sacrifice is closely linked to the yin-yang and five elements theories begin- ning in the later stage of the Warring States period; as society developed, this image also became associated with a certain Daoist path, thereby acquiring a religious value. Keywords ancient rulers – genealogy – Huang di – sacrificial rites – Yellow Emperor * The author thanks Professor Cao Feng at the School of Philosophy, Renmin University of China, for his valuable suggestions on this article and his help in locating textual sources. © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, ���7 | doi �0.��63/�35��34�-��Downloaded340043 from Brill.com10/01/2021 03:35:30AM via free access Researching the Image of the Yellow Emperor 49 Introduction Among the Daoist classics, one genre builds specifically on the myth of the Yellow Emperor 黄帝.
