描述: 中國人的太陽信仰起源於感恩太陽賜予光明與熱能，使萬物生長，人類生存。然而明朝末年崇禎皇帝自縊殉國，悲慟的明朝子民藉由祭祀太陽星君的名義來紀念前朝君王，以避免清朝的猜忌牽禍，這使中國的太陽信仰有了另一面深層不為人知的意涵。本文由太陽星君信仰的起源背景與信仰本質的變遷探討其內容。本研究藉由普查太陽星君祭祀的廟宇與組織，比對文獻資料之異同，以確認太陽星君信仰之特色及說明今日信仰分布之現象。深入分析太陽星君信仰的原由與宗教意義的關係，藉以了解太陽星君的信仰來源、內涵與慶典習俗。再探究常民社會生活中太陽星君信仰的精神與價值觀，以闡述太陽星君的信仰本質、社群組織與傳播形態等文化意涵，並界定當代的文化資產價值與定位。太陽星君主祀廟宇分佈集中於北臺灣與西南台灣兩區塊，西南台灣的密度更佔全台42%比例。太陽星君廟宇的宗教派別有道教、佛教與天理教三者，因道教理念最貼近常民，故登錄為道教的太陽廟宇最多。本文發現，以麵製「九豬十六羊」祭品來祭祀太陽星君，表達對崇禎皇帝的追思，是台南市特有的祭祀行為，具有區域之獨特性與文化資產價值。太陽星君信仰雖面臨現代因素衝擊，但太陽能是減少地球暖化的新能源，有自然環保意義，太陽信仰朝「永續地球」目標詮釋，信仰的意義與永續性將更深遠。
The Chinese belief in Helios resulted from their gratitude for the sun’s light and heat which contribute to the growth of all creatures. However, there is another deeper implication hidden behind this Chinese belief which is unknown to even most Chinese people. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Emperor Chung-chen hanged himself. His bewailing people tried to commemorate their king by worshipping the God of Sun in order to avoid the suspicion and potential disaster from the successive Ching Dynasty. This study tries to investigate the origin of Chinese people’s beliefs in Helios and the natural changes in religious belief.This study tried to confirm the characteristics of the belief in Helios and to explain the current distribution of the believers in Taiwan by conducting a general survey of all the temples and organizations worshipping Helios and comparing various data in literature. A deep analysis into the background of belief in Helios and its religious significance was done to understand the related faith origin, implications, and ceremonial customs. Furthermore, this study also explored the spirit and values of this belief among the majority in Taiwan. It also interprets its cultural implications, such as the nature of this belief, community organizations, and communication models. Finally, this belief’s values and position in contemporary culture were also defined.The temples worshipping mainly Helios were mostly located in northern and south-western Taiwan, with south-western Taiwan accounting for 42％ of all this kind of temples around the island. These temples belong to three major religions in Taiwan: Daoism, Buddhism, and Tenrikyo. Since the doctrines of Daoism are closer to the major philosophy in Taiwan, most of the Sun temples were registered as daoist temples. This study has found that the City of Tainan featured its sacrifices for Helios: flour-made nine pigs and sixteen goats, which were actually to honor Emperor Chung-chen and were thus highlighting the local feature and its value of cultural heritage. Though the belief in Helios is impacted by modern factors, the solar energy, on the other hand, is the new energy source to reduce global warming and thus has the environmental significance. If the belief in Helios can be interpreted toward the “sustaining the earth”, the meaning and sustaining of this belief might be more profound and enduring.
