誠(chéng)信是關(guān)公雕塑被神化的根本嗎

中國(guó)自古就有將道德誠(chéng)信作為信仰的訴求，比如民間對(duì)“關(guān)公雕塑的崇拜”就是對(duì)誠(chéng)信、仗義的“神化”。那么關(guān)公被神化全部都是因?yàn)檎\(chéng)信嗎？他之所以被神化誠(chéng)信是其根本嗎？

Since ancient times, China has pursued moral integrity as a belief. For example, the folk worship of "Guan Gong Sculpture" is the "deification" of integrity and justice. Is it because of honesty that Guan Gong is deified? Is the reason why he is deified and honest?

誠(chéng)信是儒家的道德追求。本來打仗與行商是兩回事，由于關(guān)羽以信義卓著，打通了誠(chéng)信與仁義二者的界限。于是，手握大刀的關(guān)羽被后來的商家視為“善財(cái)之神”。

Honesty is the moral pursuit of Confucianism. Originally, fighting war was different from doing business. Because Guan Yu was outstanding in his faith and righteousness, he broke the boundary between honesty and benevolence. As a result, Guan Yu, who held a broadsword, was regarded by later merchants as the "God of Wealth".

在華容道上，他冒著自己違反軍令的生死風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，大膽放走了曹操。義理是仁心，自此一個(gè)以義報(bào)恩，義無反顧的關(guān)公形象進(jìn)入了人們視野。

On Huarong Road, he risked his life and death to violate the military order and boldly let Cao Cao go. Righteousness is benevolence. Since then, the image of Guan Gong, who repays kindness with righteousness and never turns back, has entered people's vision.

中國(guó)人歷來恪守儒家的“君子喻于義，小人喻于利”的教誨，關(guān)羽是“言必信，行必果”的君子，所以贏得社會(huì)的信任和敬仰，至此關(guān)羽的誠(chéng)信得到了社會(huì)的廣泛的認(rèn)同。這也正是其后來被神化的思想根據(jù)。

The Chinese people have always adhered to the Confucian teachings of "a gentleman is synonymous with righteousness, and a villain is synonymous with profit". Guan Yu is a gentleman who "promises and acts with determination", so he has won the trust and admiration of the society. So far, Guan Yu's integrity has been widely recognized by the society. This is also the ideological basis of his later deification.
