歷史人文
據文獻記載,松鳴(ming)巖佛寺(si)初建于明永樂二(er)年(nian)(nian)(nian)--正統二(er)年(nian)(nian)(nian)(1404-1437年(nian)(nian)(nian)),河州(zhou)都督劉昭自捐(juan)奉(feng)銀并(bing)倡導民(min)眾(zhong)捐(juan)資創修(xiu),至清同治年(nian)(nian)(nian)間,先(xian)后(hou)建起大殿、二(er)殿、三殿、玉皇閣、圣(sheng)母(mu)宮、南(nan)無臺及西方頂等(deng)處的(de)殿宇,以(yi)后(hou)大多毀于戰(zhan)亂,到民(min)國十八年(nian)(nian)(nian)(1929年(nian)(nian)(nian))建縣時無一保(bao)存(cun)。原甘(gan)南(nan)民(min)變領導人(ren)之(zhi)一--肋巴佛曾(ceng)在松鳴(ming)巖坐床剃度。1985年(nian)(nian)(nian),隨(sui)著(zhu)宗教政策的(de)落實(shi),當地群眾(zhong)又捐(juan)資出力在原址上重建了大殿、獨崗(gang)寺(si)、山(shan)門、玉皇閣、娘(niang)娘(niang)殿等(deng)古典建筑,佛事活動(dong)隨(sui)之(zhi)日盛。
每年農歷四月(yue)二(er)十六日至四月(yue)二(er)十八(ba)(ba)日,成千上(shang)萬的善男信女(nv)和游客從四面八(ba)(ba)方趕來,臨夏、和政、廣河、康樂、卓尼、夏河、臨洮(tao)等地的漢(han)、回(hui)、東鄉、保安族等民(min)間歌(ge)手云(yun)集于此,搭起帳(zhang)篷,晝夜對歌(ge),在松(song)鳴巖(yan)的山(shan)坡上(shang),樹蔭下,小溪旁,叢林間,引(yin)吭高歌(ge),紀念留給人間優美歌(ge)聲的仙女(nv)。游山(shan)唱花(hua)兒(er)或祈福(fu)襄(xiang)災,求(qiu)神許愿,舉行佛教的龍華(hua)盛(sheng)會(hui)(hui)。四月(yue)二(er)十八(ba)(ba)日是(shi)花(hua)兒(er)會(hui)(hui)的高潮,故松(song)鳴巖(yan)俗稱“四月(yue)八(ba)(ba)”。“老僧新開浴佛會(hui)(hui),八(ba)(ba)千游女(nv)唱牡丹”是(shi)對松(song)鳴巖(yan)花(hua)兒(er)會(hui)(hui)的真實寫照。
農歷正(zheng)月十五,在甘肅省臨夏的西部山區,老(lao)百姓有放天(tian)燈(deng)的習俗。年末歲首放天(tian)燈(deng),把一年的瘟病邪氣送得遠(yuan)遠(yuan)的。同(tong)時(shi),寄托著盼(pan)望來年風調雨(yu)順,國泰(tai)民安的希冀。所以,天(tian)燈(deng)又叫太平燈(deng)。
當圓月從(cong)東山窩里(li)探出頭(tou)來,男女(nv)老少(shao)都涌到村(cun)(cun)里(li)的(de)(de)(de)(de)打麥(mai)場上。麥(mai)場中(zhong)央立著(zhu)(zhu)一(yi)(yi)個用(yong)紙糊的(de)(de)(de)(de)、圓鼓鼓好似大麻袋的(de)(de)(de)(de)天(tian)(tian)(tian)(tian)燈,天(tian)(tian)(tian)(tian)燈前面擺著(zhu)(zhu)一(yi)(yi)張供桌(zhuo),供桌(zhuo)—亡(wang)陳列著(zhu)(zhu)油炸糕、冬(dong)果(guo)、面老鼠等供品。香煙繚繞,紅(hong)燭通明,映照著(zhu)(zhu)一(yi)(yi)張張肅穆、莊重(zhong)的(de)(de)(de)(de)臉。三(san)聲爆(bao)竹脆(cui)響,村(cun)(cun)里(li)德高(gao)(gao)望重(zhong)的(de)(de)(de)(de)老漢,手(shou)持(chi)紅(hong)蠟燭向(xiang)天(tian)(tian)(tian)(tian)燈走去。兩個少(shao)年男女(nv)早(zao)已高(gao)(gao)高(gao)(gao)舉起天(tian)(tian)(tian)(tian)燈,等待老漢點燃。天(tian)(tian)(tian)(tian)燈捻點燃了,雪白的(de)(de)(de)(de)天(tian)(tian)(tian)(tian)燈頓時渾身通紅(hong)透(tou)亮,不多會兒,仿佛(fo)從(cong)空(kong)中(zhong)伸下(xia)一(yi)(yi)只看不見的(de)(de)(de)(de)神手(shou),徐徐提起天(tian)(tian)(tian)(tian)燈。孩子們(men)立刻歡呼雀躍,大人們(men)則滿臉的(de)(de)(de)(de)虔誠,仿佛(fo)在心里(li)默(mo)默(mo)地祈禱什么。紅(hong)彤(tong)彤(tong)的(de)(de)(de)(de)天(tian)(tian)(tian)(tian)燈如(ru)大彩(cai)球,被孩子們(men)的(de)(de)(de)(de)聲浪掀得更高(gao)(gao)了。顫悠悠飄向(xiang)茫茫天(tian)(tian)(tian)(tian)宇,最后溶進那數(shu)不盡的(de)(de)(de)(de)星辰里(li)。
