Introduction to the Sacrificial SiteFlat pitIt is to dig a large flat pit on the ground as an altar, which the ancients called "kan". "The Book of Rites: Sacrifices" says: "Dig a pit in the ground." "The Book of Rites: Sacrifice" states: "Sacrifice to the sun on the altar and to the moon on the pit." The altar and the pit are opposites, the altar is high and is yang, and the pit is sunken and is yin. Palaces and Temples When walls and houses are built on the basis of an altar or a mound, it becomes a palace; when objects of worship are displayed in the palace, it becomes a "temple." Palaces and temples were originally built only for human gods. Later, many gods had their own temples, such as the Earth God Temple, the Dragon King Temple, the City God Temple, and so on. However, no house shall be built on the altar, otherwise it will be regarded as a "society that betrays the country." grave Offering sacrifices to gods in cemeteries is a relatively primitive and simple method, which is mostly used to worship ancestral gods. The ancients believed that offering sacrifices at the tomb was closest to the ancestors and the ancestral gods could hear them most clearly. The Book of Rites: Tan Gong Xia records that when Confucius went out to persuade people, "when he left a country, he would cry at the tombs before leaving; when he returned to his country, he would not cry but open the tombs before entering." |
