    .中元祭為台灣重要民俗節慶,源起於兩個信仰系統的宗教儀式,道教稱之為中元節,佛教則為盂蘭盆節。

    道教說法,農曆七月十五為地官壽誕,掌管地獄的地官起慈悲心,釋放獄中眾鬼囚,
    從七月初一起重返人間享受一個月的香火、施食,以激起其向道之心,經由祭典與科儀
    的過程,信徒協助地官,超度亡魂餓鬼,使他們得以早日解脫,避免在人間作祟,
    因此各宗門在七月選擇一日或數日,舉行誦經、禮懺、作法事等科儀,以三牲素果等品,
    普度十方孤魂野鬼。其間並顯示出道教對於地獄亡魂的觀念。

    佛家說法:佛陀弟子目連尊者,為解救亡母墜入鬼道,在農曆七月十五日作盂蘭盆,
    具五果供養鬼眾,期望能使其母脫離地獄之苦,所以佛教又稱這一天為「盂蘭盆節」。
    信徒咸信七月十五日是眾僧閉關悟道的圓滿之期,如果在這一天布施十方大德,可增福百倍;
    從此中元節供盂蘭的習俗便廣為流傳。

    由於盂蘭盆會及中元節的最終目的都在於普度眾生,時日一久,兩者間的界限逐漸模糊,
    形成了目前這個蘊涵了中國人的包容、博愛,以及孝道精神的節日。
