From what aspects do you understand the historical origins of religions in Fujian and Taiwan?

The religious origin of Fujian and Taiwan has a long history, and the relationship is closely manifested in the following aspects:

First, the immigration tide brought Fujian religion to Taiwan Province Island. Fujian immigrated to Taiwan Province Province many times, which not only promoted the development of Taiwan Province Province, but also promoted the emergence and development of Taiwanese religion. Fujian immigrants who went to Taiwan Province Province brought their religious beliefs to Taiwan Province Island. In addition to the religious believers who are mainly Buddhism and Taoism, a large number of Muslims in Zheng Chenggong's army settled in Taiwan Province in the late Ming Dynasty. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Minnan Muslims also entered Chiayi and Lu Kang in Taiwan Province in batches with many immigration waves. A representative example is Guo, a Baiqi Hui from Hui 'an, Fujian, who immigrated to Taiwan Province and Keelung, with about 7,000 people.

Second, most of the religious rituals in Taiwan Province Province originated in Fujian. Most Buddhist ceremonies in Taiwan Province Province come from Fujian. This is because it was difficult for monks in Taiwan Province Province to be ordained on this island in the Qing Dynasty, so they crossed the ocean to be ordained in the jungles such as Yongquan Temple in Gushan, Fuzhou. At that time, the time of ordination was April 8 and November 17 of the lunar calendar every year, and Gushan Yongquan Temple was widely publicized. After being ordained, all Buddhist ceremonies are carried out in accordance with the system of the main temple. Most of the books on various disciplines and instruments used by Taoist priests in Taiwan Province Province were also imported from Fujian, because these disciplines and instruments were directly introduced to Taiwan Province Province by Taoist priests in Fujian. Taoism was introduced into Taiwan Province Province in 1590, and the preacher was a Taoist of the Lushan Sannai Sect who was born in Zhangzhou, Fujian.

Third, the geographical convenience of Fujian and Taiwan makes the religions on both sides of the strait have natural ties. Apart from Buddhism and Taoism, which have become the places where religions spread in Taiwan Province because of their geographical convenience, Catholicism and Christianity have also interacted for a long time because of their geographical convenience. After Catholicism was introduced into Taiwan Province province in 16 19, it preached in Fujian province with Taiwan Province province as a transit point. For example, Dominicans, Franciscans and Parisian foreign missionaries all went to Taiwan Province Province first and then to Fujian. Taiwan Christianity was introduced into Taiwan Province Province from Fujian because of its geographical relationship.

Fourth, Fujian and Taiwan are connected by religious law. Take Buddhism as an example. Buddhism in Taiwan is closely related to Fuqing Huangbai Temple, Fuzhou Yishan Temple and Fuzhou Gushan Yongquan Temple. Taiwanese Buddhism originated from China Buddhism, including Gushan Yongquan Temple, Yishan Changqing Temple and Fuqing Huangbai Temple. Orthodox Buddhism in Taiwan Province Province is related to Buddhism in Fujian. In 2 1 century, Taiwan's Buddhist sects were complex, with numerous hills, such as Foguang Mountain, Zhongtai Mountain, Tzu Chi Meritorious Society and dharma drum mountain. Nine schools: Dagang School, Yuemeishan School, Kaiyuan Temple School, Fayun Yuanguang School, Daxian Temple School, Guanyinshan School, Wanfoshan School, Qingliangshan School and Donghe Temple School; Five groups: International Buddha Light Society, China Youth Buddhist Association, China Buddhist Lay Association, China Buddhist Association and China Buddhist Monk Protection Association. These hills, sects and groups are inextricably linked with the dharma vein of Buddhism in Fujian. 5. There is a close relationship between religious sites in Fujian and Taiwan. Especially Buddhism and Taoism, Fujian and Taiwan not only have similar temple names and architectural layout, but also incense. Many temples in Taiwan Province Province are the lower houses or courtyards of Fujian temples. For example, there are more than 4 10 Longshan Temple in Taiwan Province Province, which is a branch of Anhai Longshan Temple in Jinjiang, Fujian Province. Among them, there are three most important ones: Longshan Temple in Wanhua District, Taipei, which is the oldest temple in Taipei. Up to now, there is a stone tablet outside the mountain gate, carved from the Longshan ancestral hall in Anhai. The Longshan Temple in Lugang is similar to the Longshan Temple in Anhai. The Longshan Temple in Taipei, known as the three major temples in Taipei, has enjoyed its peak incense so far. ⑾ Taoist temples related to Fujian in Taiwan Province Province are even more difficult to count.

Sixth, Fujian and Taiwan have the same language, so it is more convenient to preach. Take Taoism as an example. After Sannai School in Zhangzhou, Fujian and JOE School in Quanzhou were introduced to Taiwan Province from southern Fujian, they both used Minnan dialect. Taiwan Province Province speaks Minnan, which is included in the jurisdiction of Xiamen Youth League. Presbyterian missionaries are familiar with Minnan dialect and have language advantages in preaching in Taiwan Province. Missionaries also compiled a large number of missionary books based on Xiamen dialect in Taiwan Province Province, which were welcomed by residents in Taiwan Province Province.

Seven, the affiliation of religious organizations is closely related. Take Catholicism as an example. 1859 When Catholicism re-entered Taiwan Province Province, Taiwan Province Province was designated as the parish of Fuzhou. 188, Fujian was divided into two parishes, Fuzhou and Xiamen, and the education administration of Taiwan Province Province was officially placed under the leadership of Xiamen Parish. 1895, although Taiwan Province province was ceded to Japan by the Qing government, Taiwanese Catholicism was still under the supervision of Fuzhou parish.

8. Religions in Fujian and Taiwan Province support each other economically. Take Buddhism as an example. The construction of many Buddhist temples in Fujian is supported by Taiwan Province Province, and the construction of Yishan Temple in Fuzhou is completed with the support of Taiwan Province Province. It has become a common practice for Fujian monks to raise funds to build temples in Taiwan Province Province.

9. Religious education in Taiwan Province Province is directly influenced by Fujian. Take Buddhism as an example. Many monks from Fujian Buddhist College went to Taiwan Province Province, which greatly promoted the education of monks in Taiwan Province Province. For example, Master Cihang, who studied in Fujian Buddhist College, went to Taiwan Province and founded the first Buddhist College in Taiwan Province Province-Taiwan Province Buddhist College.
