원대(元代) 풍수문화 초탐

Abstract

The Mongol dynasty of China embraced and actively protected the traditional culture of the Han people. A typical cases are the administrative system, ancestor worship, ritual culture and yin yang study. From the early days of the Mongol Dynasty, emperors always employed a talent in Yinyang study. After the founding of the Yuan Dynasty, yin yang study became an official school. Based on the trust of the Yuan emperors and the ruling classes, feng shui culture became popular throughout society. But by blind faith in the yinyang study and feng shui, there have been bad results throughout society. In the Yuan Dynasty, laws were enacted to address the abuses caused by the blind faith in the yin yang study and feng shui. The Yin Yang School System of the Yuan Dynasty was overseen by a high-ranking government agency. The main subject of the yin yang study test was feng shui, and feng shui theory was very diverse. In accordance with the trend of feng shui culture, the Yuan Dynasty used feng shui theory to decide the capital city. The capital was determined to be Dadu, present-day Beijing, and the capital was judged to be a great place based on the theory of feng shui. Liu Bing zhong, a servant of the first emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, contributed to the formation of the Yuan Dynasty and the establishment of the Dadu. Liu Bing zhong was a Han people, a confucian scholar, a yinyang scholar and a feng shui scholar. In the feng shui Book of Liu Bing zhong, Yu chi jing, is a feng shui literature that emphasizes both the main theories of feng shui. In Yu Chi Jing, the author placed great importance on the influence of nature's patterns on people. Yu Chi Jing's contents and system were based on the writings of the important feng shui literature of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The feng shui culture of the Mongol and Yuan Dynasty is a phenomenon that emerged in the process of understanding and utilizing the feng shui culture of the Han people. The feng shui culture of the Yuan Dynasty has set the stage for the establishment of official feng shui culture in the Goryeo, the Ming, the Qing and the Joseon Dynasty. The Yuan Dynasty's feng shui culture is the reproduction and development of typical convergence of Hu and han culture. In the era of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Hu and Han people“s cultures were fused around Xian. On the other hand, the Hu and Han people“s cultures of the Yuan Dynasty were fused around Dadu. The current Beijing is reflecting the history of Feng Shui which developed traditional culture into creative urban planning and spread it to world heritage sites.
