臺灣道教正一派北斗朝科儀式「飛罡呈表」之探討–以北部地區李游坤道長為例

本研究以臺灣北部正一道的林厝派道長李游坤的步罡踏斗儀式為研究主體，針對道教「北斗朝科」儀式中「飛罡呈表」的「步罡踏斗」步法及其相關文化載體和意涵進行紀錄、分析並深入探討。本研究以田野調查方式為主，實際參與觀察正一派〈春季禮斗〉北斗朝科儀式，並以滾雪球的方式深度訪談道教研究工作者謝宗榮先生與李游坤、李松溪及曾姓三位道長。研究結果發現臺灣北部道教正一派之「北斗朝科」儀式承襲自中國古代對星斗的崇拜儀式，其科儀的傳承方式與程序嚴謹且保存完整，與唐末杜光庭收錄的《齋》的程序相近。儀式充滿豐富的象徵符號：「步罡踏斗」指涉步天、順時針路徑象徵朝向光明、東南西北四方位皆有其特定意涵。音樂與北管戲曲、動作元素與國劇身段具有共通性。

Choosing the ritual of “Bu-Gang-Ta-Dou”, performed by Mr. Yu-kun Lin Taoist－a member of Zhenyi Dao, as the study subject, this study focused on recording, analyzing, and in-depth exploring the steps and related culture carriers of Daoist, and the implications derived from the “Bu-Gang-Ta-Dou ” of “Fei-Gang-Cheng-Biau” in the “Bei-Dou-Chao-Ke” rituals in Northern Taiwan. This study was conducting mainly with fieldworks, complementing by on-site observing “Bei-Dou-Chao-Ke” rituals performed by Zhenyi Dao. Four more people were also interviewed with snowballing method, and the results shown that the Zhenyi Dao, flourished in Taiwan, is inherited from worshiping of stars in ancient China. The ways and procedures to instruct this ritual are nevertheless conscientious and careful, and well preserve even nowadays. The whole procedures are very similar to the narrations in the work of Taoist Rites, edited by Guang-ting Tu in Ming Dynasty, China. The entire ritual is full of symbolic signs, such as “Bu-Gang-Ta-Dou ” means of stepping toward the heaven, the paths of clockwise means orientating the bright side, and the four directions of North, East, West, and South are designated with certain specific meanings. However, we find that its musical and movement elements share some commonality with Chinese Beiguan folk songs and Chinese Opera respectively.
