QUOTE(nachtsider @ Jan 6 2015, 02:48 PM) Not quite. in my hometown my grandma house, there are few statue, God of prosperity, Judge of Hell, Kuanyin on top, then 5 kiddo at bottom then behind got 1 kitchen guardian kind of stuff. Taoism, no?Sintua/Chinese folk religion contains a number of elements that Taoism does not agree with, such as mediumship, and worships a number of gods that Taoism either does not acknowledge or pays only very slight lip service, such as the Monkey King, Datuk Gongs, many of the Hell beings and Guan Yin. It does include a number of Taoist concepts such as Tai Sui worship, yes, but interprets them in its own way. I would regard sintua and Taoism to be like Judaism and Christianity - similar but not the same.  |
