The Essence of People's Lives:Cultural Characteristics and Realistic Care of the Traditional Green Seedling God Worship
In traditional agriculture-oriented China,agricultural production faced enormous challenges from ecological en-vironment and natural disasters.In response to the production and order crises caused by natural disasters,a complete system of agricultural god beliefs,represented by Green Seedling God,was formed from the central to local levels,and from the state to the people.The traditional belief in Green Seedling God had diverse,regional,ethnic,and practical characteristics.In long-term production and life practice,rural society established the Green Crop Societies to organize and care for crops while organizing Green Seedling God worshiping ceremony,thereby connecting faith with secular,and rural governance with national governance.As a traditional belief shared by the people of all ethnic groups in China,the belief of the Green Seedling God had both out-standing national characteristics and distinctive commonalities of Chinese farming civilization,which helps to strengthen a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation from the perspective of cultural beliefs.
