Modern life of Fujian and Taiwan gods

Entering the 21st century, with the acceleration of modernization, the immortals of the folk belief system also kept up with this wave.

The barriers of man and God gradually eliminated under the impact of modernization. The first to break the restrictions of the dimension is the immortals of Fujian and Taiwan. Their modern life has long been a topic of extensive discussion among online observers and scholars.

Evidence shows that the fairy in Fujian and Taiwan also loves to be bad.

"If you call the airline to book a seat, inform the seats for the gods.

Other airlines: Ah? What?

Xiamen Airlines: Okay! clear! "

This is not a paragraph, but a real thing. The key is more than one god who has enjoyed aviation services.

Opening Xiamen Airlines's fairy flight standings, the first ranking should be the mother ancestor.

As the most influential marine goddess in China, her believers are located in the southeast coastal areas, Taiwan and Southeast Asia.

Every time, she had to move from the Mazu headquarters of Putian Meizhou Island to visit around the world like a world -renowned rock star.

Legend has it that Mazu was born in Meizhou Island in the 10th century and killed because of trying to save the survivors to rescue the ship. In order to commemorate her dedication to her life to help the villagers of fishing, the local residents built temples. Goddess symbol.

In the past, due to traffic restrictions, the site of Mazu's patrol was limited to the range of people's cars.

Today, the modern aviation industry has completely changed her travel.

As early as July 1, 2017, Meizhou Mazu took Xiamen Airlines and flew to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for deity exchange activities. At that time, Qianli Eyes and Shunfeng Er followed the method of protecting the method. The idols not only boarded the plane, but also had their own boarding pass.

In 2019, Xia Xia's VIP guest Mazu has once again embarked on international flights flying to Thailand. For this trip, the Mazu Temple of Meizhou organized 332 people's escort groups to escort Meizhou Mazu, Qianli Eyes, Shunfeng Ears and other gods. The scene is no less than any superstar.

From entering the airport to security inspection, to checking tickets, with previous experience, Xiamen Airlines arranged the Mazu ascension work smoothly.

It is said that on the flight returning from Thailand, after Mazu seated, many foreign flight attendants came to kneel. After all, the belief space is shifted from a temple to the modern aircraft cabin, which is rare for most people.

An accompanying escort staff slept very well throughout the process, and did not jump when she encountered bumpy eyelids. He said that there was a Mazu together, which is definitely the safest trip to the world in the world.

The plane is just a choice for Mazu to travel, and some people see Mazu on the motorcycle of Putian to Kunshan.

With the speed of the vehicle, Mazu can also come and go freely on the land as in the ocean, travel thousands of miles day, and really achieve the world.

In order to allow Mazu to participate in modern transportation life, the local government and religious circles tried their best to make a conclusion and have to apply for a ID card for Mazu.

With an ID card, you can purchase aircraft tickets and motorcycles freely. Mazu couldn't think of his own ID number in human society after thousands of years.

Her "real -name ticket" is actually a special ticket with a virtual ID number.

Mazu's ID number is 350321096003237001, which is a virtual number based on Mazu's birth date.

Also with ID cards, there are Chen Jinggu, who is respected as the "Virgin and Mrs. Linshui" in the Fujian folk belief system.

At present, there are more than 400 temples that are worshiped by Chen Jinggu as the main god in Taiwan. The palace views worshiped by God are all over Taiwan, with nearly 15 million believers. Chen Jinggu's work has long exceeded the responsibilities of ordinary fairy and has become a symbol of cross -strait cultural exchanges. The main transportation she used to use in Taiwan is a ship.

A article in Pingtan Blue wrote that every time the Pingtan's entry and entry border inspection station will customize the travel plan for Chen Jinggu to return to Taiwan in advance, open the green channel, and quickly go through the customs clearance procedures for them.

The king of Guangze Zun in Fengshan Temple, Nan'an, was also an earlier god of immortality. The statue of his deity was recorded in Singapore in 1903.

More than 100 years later, Kings Guangze repeatedly traveled to Lion City on modern transportation planes. In 2019, he not only dispatched double gold at the same time, but also brought his wife, which shows the emphasis on the hosted parties.

There were about 600 Xinzhongshan splitting 10 large buss and other transportation devices on the other side of Singapore. They were driving at the east coast parking lot near the airport early in the morning. In addition, there were 10 floats and multiple gongs and drum teams. The scene was grand.

The king of Guangze, also known as the security guard Guangze, King Guo Sheng, the gods, and the holy king. It is a god in the Chinese folk belief. It has a unique image of the right leg and the left leg. King Guangze was a shepherd child in Nan'an, Fujian during his lifetime, and became a god. After that, he repeatedly expressed its spirit and became the local guardian god of Nan'an. His beliefs were expanded from Nan'an to the entire Fujian, and spread to Taiwan with the migration of immigrants. Hong Kong and Southeast Asia are influential. Compared with Fujian Province, the people on the other side of Taiwan Province are even more strange to the phenomenon of deeds by transportation, and they often see headlines of the entertainment media.

Taiwan idols are good at collective dispatch, including a whole bus or train, pursuing the experience of the journey.

God is not in heaven, nor is it in the temple, but on the road. Kauluk reads a Oriental version of "On the Road".

The idol sitting in the temple is a fixed -point service, and it can be stained by the trains to make the rain dew. Collective departure not only enhances the BUFF effect of the train, but also solves the blessing of a faithful believer on which the faith.

The penetration of modern life depends on the Buddha in Taiwan.

Black Mercedes, the tail box was modified, a Falun, listed on the Buddha car, the religious beliefs of the German automotive industry in Taiwan and India made a foreign spark. Not only did the traffic police look at confused, we also confused on the other side.

Some people say that this is an era without a fairy. The fairy who had been high in the past was pulled down the altar and entered the masses, and his faith was moving from 1.0 to the 2.0 era.

The gods seem to understand that taking the line of parental people is a way to maintain the continuous flow of the long river. In the past, there was a idol and the high -speed rail attracted the attention of the global Mazu believers. Later, Mazu Xinzhong invited Xiamen Shengxiaotang Tianfu Tianfu Tianfu to go to the movie theater to watch the film "Mazu home".

In the future, there will be more placies that will happen to participate in contemporary life.

Under the discussion of "Mazu mother -in -law is the only fairy who has been sitting on the plane", a netizen named Dan Tang Taoism made other supplements for this dimension.

"Several gods on the altar on the altar: Nine days, the sound of Yuan Lei, the emperor, Mazu, Master Madam, Marshal, Ma, Zhao, Wen, Guan Guan, Xuantian God."

It can be seen that God's participation in modern life is much more than we imagine. Maybe there is a fairy sitting from the flight where you fly through the sky at this moment.
