Why is Mazu culture a living culture?
The formation of Mazu culture itself has also left considerable spiritual wealth to mankind. At present, only the historical documents of Mazu belief are directly recorded, and the most conservative estimate is more than one million words. It involves many topics in the fields of economy, politics, military affairs, diplomacy, literature, art, education, science and technology, religion, folklore, overseas Chinese, immigration, etc., with rich content and high historical value. Famous historians in China, such as Gu Jiegang and Ke Zhao, have published many papers about ancestors and the day after tomorrow, which have aroused repercussions in academic circles. After 20 years' research, Taiwan Province scholar Li Xianzhang finally wrote the book Mazu Belief, which became the first highly academic monograph on Mazu research in China. Since 1980s, Taiwan Province Province, Macau, Xiamen and other places have set off an upsurge of Mazu research, held many academic seminars on Mazu culture, and published nearly 100 academic monographs, such as Mazu Scholars at Home and Abroad, Essays on Mazu Research, Compilation of Mazu Research Materials, Compilation of Mazu Literature Materials, Mazu Belief and Ancestral Temple, Meizhou Mazu and so on. In recent years, "Mazu Cultural Tourism Festival" has sprung up everywhere, such as Tianjin, Macao, Fujian and other places, which shows the vitality of Mazu culture.
