宗教文化"重生"意识刍议

宗教作为人的生存意识通常所反映的总是重生或求生心理。原始宗教反映的是人类的一种最古老的生存意识，实际上是一种朴素的“共生意识”；作为中国原生宗教的道教是在人的生存意识的基础上建立起来的一种特殊宗教，其根本宗旨是探求长生和成仙之道，表达了人们对生命永恒的强烈期盼；作为一种异域宗教的佛教最终却在中国生根流播，在很大的程度上是其完成了中国化的改造，使其所反映的生命意识与中国传统文化所包容的牛命意识实现了契合；中国还存在着非常丰富的民间宗教，这些民间宗教在形式上往往千奇百怪，但是自然信仰和自然崇拜却往往是这些宗教的共同内容或主题显示。

The Concept of "Consciousness of Life" in Religious Culture

Religion is one simple consciousness of living together of human beings. Dao religion is the primary one in China, whose development purpose is to explore the secret of longevity and living forever, which indicates the longing for perpetual life of human beings. Buddhism, a foreign religion, finally roots deeply in China after making its agreement with the traditional consciousness of life?in Chinese culture. There exist plenty of folk religions in China. They are quite different in forms, but obviously share the same content and theme: the initial belief and admiration of human beings.
