　　社稷

　　古代君主、诸侯所祭祀的地皮神和五谷神。“社”是地皮神，“稷”是五谷神。

　　地皮神和五谷神是以农为本的中原族最关键的原始真贵物。古代君主为了祈求国是太平、五谷丰登，每年王人要祭祀地皮神和五谷神，“社稷”因此成为国度与政权的象征。

　　Gods of the Earth and the Five Grains / State / State Power

　　She is the God of the Earth, and ji (millet), represents the God of the Five Grains. Chinese kings and vassals of ancient times offered sacrifices to these gods. As the Han people depended on farming, these gods were the most important primitive objects of worship. The ancient rulers offered sacrifices to the gods of the Earth and the Five Grains every year to pray for peace and good harvests in the country. As a result, sheji became a symbol of the nation and state power.

　　引例

　　王者是以社稷何？为全国求福报功。东谈主非土不立，非谷不食。地皮广宽，不可遍敬也；五谷稠密，不可逐一祭也。故封土立社示有土尊；稷，五谷之长，故立稷而祭之也。（《白虎通义·社稷》）（皇帝为何确就地皮神与五谷神呢？是为了全国庶民祈求神的赐福、回报神的好事。莫得地皮，东谈主就不成糊口；莫得五谷，东谈主就莫得食品。地皮渊博，不可能所有礼敬；五谷稠密，不可能所有祭祀。是以封土为坛就地皮神以暗示地皮的尊贵；稷［谷子］是五谷中最关键的食粮，是以立稷为五谷神而赐与祭祀。）

　　Why do the Sons of Heaven worship the gods of the Earth and the Five Grains? They do so to seek blessings for all under heaven and to requite the gods’blessings. Without earth, people have nowhere to live; without grain, people have nothing to eat. The earth is too vast to be worshipped everywhere; the variety of grains is too large to be worshipped one by one. Therefore, earth altars to the God of the Earth have been set up to honor the earth; and as millet is the chief one of the five grains, it has become the God of the Five Grains and sacrifices have been instituted. (Debates of the White Tiger Hall)
