The custom of worship in Tomb-Sweeping Day is deeply rooted. Why can China's sacrificial culture last for thousands of years?

I. Feudal Society In feudal society, the reasons why people worship their ancestors are complicated. Some people think that their ancestors did not die, but continued to live in the underworld, so they need to worship themselves and ask their ancestors to bless them. Some rulers imprison people's thoughts in this way and let people form a kind of? Elder? An inviolable mode of thinking forms this mode of thinking, so people seldom resist? Elder? Not resisting the so-called? Elder? How can you stand up to the emperor?

To put it bluntly, the ancestor worship behavior of the ancients had social and cultural influence. After all, the ancient feudal superstitious culture has been passed down for thousands of years, and people really believe that there are ghosts in this world. Therefore, ancestor worship is as real and meaningful as offering tea to the elders at home, and it is not a modern feudal superstition.

Have a back? Pushing hands? The fundamental reason for promoting the inheritance of this culture and this sacrificial culture is that the rulers want to stabilize the country and control the people's thoughts. After all, the ancients paid attention to the extreme filial piety culture and thought that they should obey their elders no matter what. Even if the elders are villains, the younger generation can't go against their wishes. Even if they die, they should continue to be respected by the younger generation. The meaning behind this actually means that even if the sky falls, ordinary people can't rule against the will of the emperor, because the emperor is the best in the world? Dragon? That man.

Second, under the premise that the feudal superstition in modern society has been broken, the worship of ancestors in the past is actually much simpler. Modern people are just remembering their dead ancestors. Of course, many people habitually worship because of this custom, but the core of feudal superstitious culture has disappeared? That is to believe that these ancestors are still alive and that there are triads in this world.

To put it bluntly, modern sacrifice is actually the memory of the living to the dead.
