白礁慈(ci)濟祖(zu)宮是(shi)閩南(nan)(nan)人文(wen)景觀的精華,是(shi)臺灣(wan)與大(da)陸(lu)(lu)血脈相連的見證。明永(yong)歷十五(wu)年(nian)(西(xi)元一六六一年(nian)),民族英雄(xiong)鄭成功從閩南(nan)(nan)沿(yan)海渡海收復臺灣(wan),部(bu)分忠(zhong)貞軍特地從"白礁慈(ci)濟祖(zu)官"迎請(qing)保(bao)生大(da)帝神(shen)(shen)像,作為(wei)保(bao)護神(shen)(shen)隨(sui)軍東(dong)渡,于(yu)農歷三月(yue)十一日在臺灣(wan)臺南(nan)(nan)學甲(jia)鎮頭前寮將軍溪(xi)安全登陸(lu)(lu)。
以(yi)后部分忠貞(zhen)軍在此定居,并建"學(xue)(xue)甲慈濟(ji)(ji)宮(gong)(gong)"奉祝"保生大帝"神(shen)像。三百(bai)多年(nian)(nian)來,每年(nian)(nian)的三月十(shi)一日,臺灣各地保生大帝廟宮(gong)(gong)都要(yao)聚集學(xue)(xue)甲慈濟(ji)(ji)宮(gong)(gong),舉行規模盛大的"上白礁"竭(jie)祖(zu)祭典活動(dong)。如今(jin),每年(nian)(nian)都有成千(qian)上萬的臺灣各地善(shan)信到白礁慈濟(ji)(ji)祖(zu)宮(gong)(gong)竭(jie)祖(zu)進香。
白礁(jiao)慈濟祖宮建宮八百多年來,歷經數次重大重修,全依海(hai)內(nei)外善信鼎立資助,均有勒石紀(ji)念。
一九八九年來(lai),蒙龍(long)(long)海(hai)市有關部(bu)門(men)重(zhong)視(shi)支(zhi)持協(xie)調(原屬龍(long)(long)海(hai)市管轄),臺灣保生(sheng)大(da)帝廟宇聯(lian)誼會(hui)會(hui)長周大(da)圍大(da)德組織發動籌(chou)募人民幣壹(yi)佰(bai)二十多(duo)萬元(yuan)和黃金箔三十五萬張投入祖宮大(da)修,兼(jian)蓄歷代藝術精髓(sui),又利用現代科學手段,至此,白(bai)礁(jiao)慈(ci)濟(ji)祖宮更加金碧輝煌。
近(jin)幾年來(lai),白(bai)礁慈濟(ji)祖宮已成為漳(zhang)州臺商投資(zi)區旅游勝地,海內外朝圣的信徒和游客絡繹(yi)不絕(jue)。
白礁(jiao)慈濟宮(gong)位于福建(jian)省(sheng)漳州(zhou)臺商投資區白礁(jiao)村,是奉祀閩(min)臺醫神保生大(da)帝的祖宮(gong)。自南(nan)宋紹興二十(shi)年
(1150)肇(zhao)建以來,白礁(jiao)慈濟(ji)宮(gong)(gong)便以其(qi)宏敞巍(wei)峨的(de)(de)(de)(de)皇(huang)宮(gong)(gong)式(shi)(shi)建筑(zhu)規模(mo)、古(gu)色古(gu)香的(de)(de)(de)(de)藝術格調,以及常(chang)年(nian)(nian)旺盛的(de)(de)(de)(de)香火供奉,被譽稱為(wei)閩南“故宮(gong)(gong)”。今天(tian)的(de)(de)(de)(de)白礁(jiao)慈濟(ji)宮(gong)(gong)為(wei)一(yi)(yi)(yi)座五(wu)門三進皇(huang)宮(gong)(gong)式(shi)(shi)建筑(zhu)。殿(dian)宇(yu)分前(qian)(qian)、中、后(hou)三殿(dian),前(qian)(qian)殿(dian)兩邊為(wei)文(wen)(wen)武朝房(fang),共開五(wu)門。正中大(da)(da)門上邊,高懸“慈濟(ji)祖(zu)宮(gong)(gong)”橫匾,筆勢雄渾有力,為(wei)我國(guo)著名書法家啟功先生(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)的(de)(de)(de)(de)神(shen)韻之(zhi)(zhi)作(zuo)。殿(dian)前(qian)(qian)走廊立有數根方形石(shi)(shi)柱,石(shi)(shi)柱上鐫刻(ke)兩幅亦文(wen)(wen)亦畫的(de)(de)(de)(de)竹(zhu)葉聯,立意新穎且惟妙惟肖(xiao),其(qi)聯曰:“慈心施妙法,濟(ji)眾益良(liang)方”;“保(bao)(bao)我德無量,生(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)民澤利長(chang)”。前(qian)(qian)殿(dian)二樓,中間辟(pi)為(wei)會議室,兩邊各(ge)懸掛有巨鐘(zhong)及巨鼓(gu),鐘(zhong)鼓(gu)形制古(gu)樸,叩之(zhi)(zhi)鏘然(ran)有聲。 中殿(dian)與前(qian)(qian)殿(dian)之(zhi)(zhi)間有天(tian)井(jing)隔開,一(yi)(yi)(yi)來出于(yu)采(cai)光(guang)的(de)(de)(de)(de)考慮,二來也可增加(jia)宮(gong)(gong)廟的(de)(de)(de)(de)景趣。天(tian)井(jing)中有一(yi)(yi)(yi)眼水井(jing),這是當(dang)年(nian)(nian)慈濟(ji)宮(gong)(gong)擴(kuo)建時,保(bao)(bao)生(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)大(da)(da)帝涌泉以飲(yin)病者的(de)(de)(de)(de)遺跡(ji)。天(tian)井(jing)正中還立著一(yi)(yi)(yi)只手握(wo)印鑒、頗顯匠心的(de)(de)(de)(de)石(shi)(shi)獅(shi)(shi),稱為(wei)“國(guo)母獅(shi)(shi)”。據說當(dang)年(nian)(nian)保(bao)(bao)生(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)大(da)(da)帝化(hua)做道士(shi),入宮(gong)(gong)醫愈文(wen)(wen)皇(huang)后(hou)的(de)(de)(de)(de)乳(ru)疾(ji)后(hou),文(wen)(wen)皇(huang)后(hou)感念神(shen)恩(en),特命能(neng)工巧(qiao)匠雕塑一(yi)(yi)(yi)只握(wo)有保(bao)(bao)生(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)大(da)(da)帝印章的(de)(de)(de)(de)石(shi)(shi)獅(shi)(shi),派人由(you)京城(cheng)專程送至(zhi)白礁(jiao)慈濟(ji)宮(gong)(gong)。在(zai)石(shi)(shi)獅(shi)(shi)與正殿(dian)之(zhi)(zhi)間,是一(yi)(yi)(yi)塊四(si)方形的(de)(de)(de)(de)獻(xian)臺,臺椽四(si)周鏤有生(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)動(dong)活潑的(de)(de)(de)(de)“飛天(tian)仙女”、“獅(shi)(shi)子(zi)戲(xi)球”浮雕。獻(xian)臺是各(ge)地(di)同祀宮(gong)(gong)廟到祖(zu)宮(gong)(gong)進香時,奉獻(xian)各(ge)種祭品的(de)(de)(de)(de)場所。步入中殿(dian),兩邊丹墀(chi),俱(ju)用(yong)(yong)光(guang)石(shi)(shi)鋪成,既端(duan)莊大(da)(da)方,又顯得(de)明亮可鑒。中殿(dian)頂(ding)蓋為(wei)蜘蛛結網(wang)式(shi)(shi)的(de)(de)(de)(de)木拱結構,不僅美觀精致(zhi),而(er)且有著獨到的(de)(de)(de)(de)防震(zhen)功能(neng)。在(zai)漳州、泉州灣外海以及東山(shan)島的(de)(de)(de)(de)地(di)震(zhen)中,慈濟(ji)宮(gong)(gong)的(de)(de)(de)(de)正殿(dian)均因殿(dian)頂(ding)的(de)(de)(de)(de)蜘蛛藻井(jing)結構而(er)安然(ran)無恙(yang),這不能(neng)不說是建筑(zhu)史(shi)的(de)(de)(de)(de)一(yi)(yi)(yi)個奇跡(ji)。正殿(dian)保(bao)(bao)生(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)大(da)(da)帝神(shen)像前(qian)(qian)祭桌的(de)(de)(de)(de)正中擺放著一(yi)(yi)(yi)個銅質香爐(lu),這是保(bao)(bao)生(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)大(da)(da)帝生(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)(sheng)前(qian)(qian)采(cai)藥煉丹用(yong)(yong)過的(de)(de)(de)(de)香爐(lu),距今已(yi)有千年(nian)(nian)之(zhi)(zhi)久。

顏師魯和族人為永謝保生大(da)(da)帝的大(da)(da)恩(en)大(da)(da)德,就懇求白礁慈濟祖宮廟公(gong)把(ba)三大(da)(da)帝留(liu)在院前(qian)村(cun)(cun)供(gong)奉,并進一步興建廟宇。院前(qian)社只是青(qing)礁村(cun)(cun)的一個(ge)自然村(cun)(cun),于是經(jing)過數個(ge)朝代,院前(qian)保生大(da)(da)帝廟改名為青(qing)礁東宮廟。

朱(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)棣與國(guo)舅(jiu)商量如(ru)何(he)褒獎這(zhe)道(dao)(dao)(dao)(dao)(dao)士(shi)(shi)。國(guo)舅(jiu)一(yi)(yi)(yi)(yi)咬定(ding)這(zhe)道(dao)(dao)(dao)(dao)(dao)士(shi)(shi)就是(shi)吳(wu)(wu)真(zhen)人(ren)(ren)(ren)的(de)(de)(de)(de)化身(shen),不(bu)(bu)(bu)然(ran)(ran)哪有如(ru)此高明(ming)(ming)醫(yi)(yi)術(shu)?朱(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)棣也覺得言之有理,派人(ren)(ren)(ren)到(dao)旅店(dian)查問,店(dian)主人(ren)(ren)(ren)說:“道(dao)(dao)(dao)(dao)(dao)人(ren)(ren)(ren)自(zi)方福建泉州白(bai)(bai)(bai)礁人(ren)(ren)(ren),姓(xing)吳(wu)(wu),昨(zuo)日(ri)出(chu)城采藥(yao)(yao)(yao),迄今(jin)未(wei)還(huan)。”朱(zhu)(zhu)(zhu)棣即派欽(qin)(qin)差(cha)到(dao)閩南白(bai)(bai)(bai)礁宮(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)敕(chi)封(feng)吳(wu)(wu)真(zhen)人(ren)(ren)(ren)為:“恩主吳(wu)(wu)天醫(yi)(yi)靈妙惠真(zhen)君萬壽無(wu)(wu)極保生(sheng)大帝(di)。” 皇(huang)后(hou)(hou)(hou)也感(gan)激這(zhe)救命大恩,就令朝(chao)庭欽(qin)(qin)差(cha)官將京都的(de)(de)(de)(de)能工巧匠所,琢造了(le)(le)(le)(le)一(yi)(yi)(yi)(yi)只高擎印(yin)章(zhang)的(de)(de)(de)(de)石獅,派員運到(dao)白(bai)(bai)(bai)礁慈(ci)濟(ji)祖(zu)(zu)宮(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)。后(hou)(hou)(hou)代(dai)人(ren)(ren)(ren)們(men)因這(zhe)石獅子(zi)是(shi)皇(huang)后(hou)(hou)(hou)娘娘所贈,就順口(kou)稱之為“國(guo)母獅”。
建于南(nan)宋紹興(xing)二十年,為(wei)三進皇(huang)宮(gong)式(shi)殿宇(yu),中(zhong)殿祭壇獻臺前置威猛的(de)(de)國母獅。據傳(chuan),明成祖(zu)朱棣的(de)(de)文(wen)皇(huang)后患(huan)痼疾(ji),朝(chao)內太(tai)醫久治不愈,皇(huang)帝(di)只(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)好(hao)下(xia)詔懸賞求醫,終被保生大帝(di)化(hua)為(wei)道士(shi)醫好(hao)。皇(huang)后感(gan)激這(zhe)救命大恩(en),就令朝(chao)廷(ting)欽差將一(yi)對石獅其中(zhong)一(yi)只(zhi)(zhi)(zhi),運到白(bai)礁慈濟祖(zu)宮(gong),作為(wei)鎮(zhen)宮(gong)之(zhi)寶。如今,另一(yi)只(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)石獅尚存放在(zai)北京(jing)故宮(gong)城。 慈濟宮(gong)建筑(zhu)布(bu)局奇特(te),造型雄偉。在(zai)垂檐復宇(yu)、翼角翠飛(fei)之(zhi)間,名人(ren)題詞和以歷史故事(shi)、山水禽(qin)獸花(hua)木(mu)為(wei)題材的(de)(de)石刻、木(mu)雕、壁畫、剪(jian)粘等藝(yi)術作品星(xing)羅棋(qi)布(bu),均(jun)屬上乘佳作,被譽(yu)為(wei)“閩(min)南(nan)故宮(gong)”。在(zai)宮(gong)中(zhong),我們看(kan)到一(yi)幅尼勒佛壁畫,不管從左(zuo)邊(bian)看(kan)還是右邊(bian)看(kan),尼勒佛的(de)(de)眼光、肚皮(pi)和腳下(xia)的(de)(de)鞋(xie)尖都(dou)會隨著(zhu)我們的(de)(de)角度和視(shi)線轉移,十分(fen)有(you)趣。

大(da)帝自幼聰穎(ying),長大(da)博(bo)覽典(dian)籍,凡禮樂刑政之(zhi)書(shu),天文(wen)地(di)理之(zhi)學,莫(mo)不(bu)留心(xin)潛研,尤其對歧黃醫術,更為精通(tong)。宋太宗(zong)至道(dao)(dao)元(yuan)(yuan)年(nian)歲(sui)(sui)(sui)次(ci)乙末(995年(nian)),大(da)帝17歲(sui)(sui)(sui)時,為尋師訪道(dao)(dao),遍游名山古剎,得濟世(shi)神方。據(ju)傳(chuan)宋真(zhen)宗(zong)咸(xian)平五年(nian)歲(sui)(sui)(sui)次(ci)壬寅(yin)(1002年(nian)),大(da)帝24歲(sui)(sui)(sui)中舉人(ren)(ren),授派御史,任(ren)職多年(nian),為治病救(jiu)人(ren)(ren),無心(xin)仕途。至宋真(zhen)宗(zong)大(da)中祥符(fu)元(yuan)(yuan)年(nian)歲(sui)(sui)(sui)次(ci)戊申(shen)(1008年(nian)),大(da)帝30歲(sui)(sui)(sui)時,先在泉(quan)郡同邑(yi)積善里白礁(jiao)鄉文(wen)圃山龍池巖修道(dao)(dao)煉(lian)丹(dan),設“丹(dan)灶(zao)”煉(lian)藥(yao)(現存(cun)“丹(dan)灶(zao)石”題刻,神靈(ling)泉(quan),藥(yao)臼),以醫救(jiu)世(shi),病人(ren)(ren)就醫,無不(bu)藥(yao)到病除。
據(ju)史(shi)書記載,宋真宗大(da)(da)中祥符七年歲次甲寅(1014年),大(da)(da)帝到山林(lin)中采藥,救活同安知(zhi)縣(xian)江(jiang)(jiang)少峰(后稱仙(xian)宮)的書童,江(jiang)(jiang)知(zhi)縣(xian)有感于(yu)此與張(zhang)師爺(后稱圣者(zhe))遂棄官隨(sui)行。大(da)(da)帝帶了江(jiang)(jiang)仙(xian)官、張(zhang)圣者(zhe)回歸白礁故里結廬(lu)隱(yin)居,修(xiu)真論道,談經說法,受教日(ri)眾,業醫活人,按病與藥,如矢破的,雖(sui)沉痼(gu)奇癥,亦就痊(quan)愈。

宋(song)仁宗景佑三年歲次丙子(1036年)五(wu)月(yue)初二日午時,大帝在文(wen)圃山(shan)龍池巖攀(pan)巖采藥(yao),因跌傷不治仙逝于白(bai)(bai)礁。傳說是大帝借同圣(sheng)父(fu)圣(sheng)母、圣(sheng)妹吳明(ming)媽、妹夫王舍(she)人(ren)及(ji)江(jiang)張二從者(zhe),在白(bai)(bai)礁故(gu)里乘白(bai)(bai)鶴飛(fei)升。鄉人(ren)睇(di)矚叩(kou)送,肖(xiao)像供奉。
紹興二(er)(er)十(shi)(shi)年(nian)(nian)(nian)(nian)(1150年(nian)(nian)(nian)(nian)),宋(song)高宗頒詔立(li)廟(miao)(miao)白(bai)礁(jiao),以祀吳真(zhen)(zhen)人。據《白(bai)礁(jiao)志略》云:“紹興二(er)(er)十(shi)(shi)年(nian)(nian)(nian)(nian)詔立(li)廟(miao)(miao)白(bai)礁(jiao),即(ji)今之祖廟(miao)(miao)也。二(er)(er)十(shi)(shi)一年(nian)(nian)(nian)(nian)鄉(xiang)尚書顏(yan)定肅公師魯請于朝,復立(li)廟(miao)(miao)祀青(qing)礁(jiao),即(ji)修煉(lian)處,今之東宮也。”乾道(dao)二(er)(er)年(nian)(nian)(nian)(nian)(1166年(nian)(nian)(nian)(nian)),宋(song)孝宗賜號(hao)“慈濟真(zhen)(zhen)人”。此(ci)后傳(chuan)說大(da)(da)道(dao)公屢(lv)屢(lv)顯靈圣(sheng)護國佑民(min),宋(song)明兩朝對其封贈(zeng)不斷晉級。相傳(chuan)開禧年(nian)(nian)(nian)(nian)間(1205~1207)漳(zhang)泉大(da)(da)旱,漳(zhang)泉民(min)眾聚集慈濟祖宮禱(dao)求大(da)(da)道(dao)公,幸受庇佑,連降雷雨,五谷大(da)(da)豐(feng)。宋(song)寧(ning)宗加封“英惠候(hou)”。明永樂十(shi)(shi)七年(nian)(nian)(nian)(nian)(1419年(nian)(nian)(nian)(nian))敕封保生大(da)(da)帝。
