出花園儀式簡介 Brief Introduction on the Ritual “Exiting of the Immortal Garden”


經同道好友們要求﹐小道在此簡單的分享出花園儀式/科儀流程。

據小道所知﹐目前在很多地方﹐出花園儀式/科儀已很少人在做﹐有些甚至已經完全失傳(本門目前所擁有的出花園儀式/科儀也只有大概二百年歷史)

如果要追溯此科儀的來源﹐小道也只能說他是屬民間正一派科儀或民間三奶派法門之一﹐目的在於為年滿虛歲十六的青年男女們﹐向臨水宮夫人們及註生娘娘行答謝禮﹐感謝她們在這十六年來的護佑。

出花園﹐在不同區域有著不同的名稱﹐如下﹕

1 – 出花園
2 – 出婆姐宮
3 – 姆宮
4 – 出註生府
5 – 別花亭
6 – 謝母丫館或謝母丫管 (解釋為感謝媽媽”(指註生媽)這麼多年來得照顧)

而目前在東南亞一帶﹐福建籍貫的同胞們就較少會舉行出花園而潮州籍貫的同胞們則很好的保留了此傳統。

以下是出花園儀式/科儀流程簡介分享﹕

通常一部出花園儀式/科儀所須時間大約為半天﹐從早上九時開始至午間三時結束。

早上科儀有﹕

) 奏樂

) 清壇

) 調將

) 請神  (臨水宮/註生府﹐等)

) 誦經

) 獻供

) “ (將清淨水化成聖水供出花園青年男女梳洗)

) “(其實是指木屐﹐畫符諱在木屐上﹐以便青年男女們穿上﹐走過花園小道)

) 換衣 (青年男女們換上新衣木屐﹐準備出花園)

中午科儀有﹕

) 清淨 (為青年男女們清淨心﹐身及意”)

十一) 謝別 (青年男女們向臨水宮/註生府眾神行大禮答謝)

十二) ”脫體” (分給青年男女們每人一個雞蛋﹐必須將雞蛋打破)

十三) 請父母 (請青年男女們的父母作證明﹐清淨父母雙手)

十四) 宣疏

十五) 別園 別宮 (既是出花園﹐須過五﹐七或九個門)

15.1 – 陰陽門

15.2 – 化身門

15.3 – 得魂門

15.4 – 成體門

15.5 – 母恩門

15.6 – 週歲門

15.7 – 三關門

15.8 – 得佑門

15.9 – 百花門

隨著行科道長踏步走﹐每過一門﹐青年男女們都得繞地上不同的花蕊而過。

十六) 交付 (行科道長會將青年男女們﹐一一託付回給父母 父母雙手接過孩子的手﹐這也是最為感動的一刻)

下午三時﹕

十七) 化疏

十八) 送神

以上便是出花園儀式/科儀全套的簡介﹐希望大家互相研究。

以下是有台灣民俗大師謝宗榮前輩及夫人的出花園儀式分享﹐請大家務必前往閱讀﹕

Pictures of Zhu Sheng Niang Niang (注生娘娘簡介)

 
Zhu Sheng Niang Niang (注生娘娘) aka Zhu Sheng Ma (注生媽), a Taoist female Deity that is being appointed as the Protector Patron for Baby delivery or Baby-sitting (嬰兒守護神).

In the olden days, when a lady confirmed being pregnant, she and her family would have to visit Temples dedicated to Zhu Sheng Niang Niang to pay respect to her in-order to get her blessing for smooth delivery of the baby (順產臨盆).

For those who didnt have a chance to get any baby (after long period of trying), they could also visit Zhu Sheng Niang Niang Temples to request for babies. The couple just needed to prepare the following items:

For Baby Boy, prepared White Flowers 白花 (of any type), white flowers represent positive or Yang (代表陽), after offering this to Zhu Sheng Niang Niang, she will get the message and blessed accordingly and;

For Baby Girl, prepared Red Flowers 紅花 (of any type), red flowers represent negative or Yin (代表陰), after offering this to Zhu Sheng Niang Niang, she will get the message and blessed accordingly.

Under Zhu Sheng Niang Niang, she got a few assistants to assist her in the performing of the Baby-sitting tasks, they are:

1 – Hua Gong Hua Po (花公花婆), to delivery the correct form of babies to couples
2 – 12 to 72 Nannies (奶娘), to take care of new born babies till the age of 12 years old

And this is the reason, in our Folks Practice, when a kid reaches 12 years old (some 14 years old), the parent will arranged for a Ritual/Ceremony to thank the Deities for looking after the kids for so many years, etc.
