為什么關(guān)公雕塑廟宇是最多的

若問中國什么廟宇居多，怕有許多人一時語塞。因為中國的神明成百上千，影響很大的也有三五十位，哪位神明的廟宇居多，確實不大好回答。以北京為例，居多的廟宇是供奉關(guān)公雕塑的廟宇。清代的關(guān)廟，北京城內(nèi)外達到200來個，占全部廟宇總數(shù)的十分之一。

If you ask what temples are in the majority in China, I'm afraid many people will be speechless for a moment. Because there are hundreds of gods in China, and there are also thirty or fifty who have a great influence. Which God has the most temples is really hard to answer. Take Beijing as an example, most of the temples are dedicated to Guan Gong's sculptures. In the Qing Dynasty, there were more than 200 Guan temples inside and outside Beijing, accounting for one tenth of the total number of temples.

關(guān)廟所祀神明是三國時蜀國大將關(guān)羽，俗稱“關(guān)公”。從魏至唐，關(guān)羽在民間的影響并不太大，自宋以降，方聲威大震。宋代封其為“義勇武安王”，明朝加封為“三界伏魔大帝神威遠鎮(zhèn)天尊關(guān)圣大帝”。他的封號甚至*過人間帝王，因為歷史中還沒有哪個皇帝敢自稱“大帝”的!其實，關(guān)羽生前不過“前將軍”，爵位是“漢壽亭侯”。

The God enshrined in Guan temple is Guan Yu, a general of Shu during the Three Kingdoms period, commonly known as "Guan Gong". From Wei to Tang Dynasty, Guan Yu did not have much influence on the people. Since the Song Dynasty, Fang was very famous. In the Song Dynasty, it was granted the title of "King Wu'an of volunteers", and in the Ming Dynasty, it was granted the title of "emperor Guan Shengda, Tianzun of shenweiyuan Town, the great emperor of subduing demons in the three realms". His title has even been a human emperor, because no emperor in history dares to call himself "the great emperor"! In fact, Guan Yu was only a "former general" and his title was "Hou of Hanshou Pavilion".

關(guān)公具有驅(qū)災、鎮(zhèn)兇煞的作用。關(guān)公被封為武財神，可以保護人丁興旺，萬事吉利。所以，關(guān)公的擺放位置一定不能擺放在財位上，應該放在兇位上以鎮(zhèn)兇。如果不能夠查找兇位，關(guān)公也應該擺放在離門口三分之一處，鑄銅關(guān)公，正對門口的地方。再同時配上銅香爐，廣場銅關(guān)公雕塑，誠心參拜，會得到關(guān)公雕像的庇佑的。

Guan Gong has the function of driving disasters and restraining evil spirits. Guan Gong was named the God of wealth, which can protect the prosperity of people and good luck. Therefore, Guan Gong's position must not be placed in the position of wealth, but should be placed in the position of evil to suppress evil. If you can't find the culprit, Guan Gong should also be placed one-third away from the door, cast copper Guan Gong, facing the door. At the same time, it is equipped with a copper incense burner and a copper statue of Duke Guan in the square. If you sincerely pay homage, you will be blessed by the statue of Duke Guan.

關(guān)公，是家喻戶曉的歷史人物，忠肝義膽，義薄云天，對于他過五關(guān)，斬六將，水淹七軍的戰(zhàn)績也是耳熟能詳了，但是關(guān)公展現(xiàn)在我們心中的不僅僅是騎馬拔刀的神勇，詮釋出的也不僅僅是他威風凜凜：也可以是拔刀而立，手握寶刀的形象，流露出守財之態(tài)。

Guan Gong is a well-known historical figure. He is loyal and courageous. He is well known for his achievements in passing five passes, killing six generals and flooding the seven armies. However, Guan Gong shows not only his courage to ride a horse and draw a knife, but also his awe inspiring style: he can also draw a knife and stand upright with a treasure knife in hand, showing his attitude of keeping money.
