The Two Exceptional Zhai-Hui Customs in Shi Ying Zhi's “Wu Shan Ji＂

釋應之撰制的《五杉練若新學備用》，原以為是亡佚的佛教典籍，如今重新問世，經過多位學者的研究，已發表不少的篇章，證明該書存在著極高的價值。如今筆者針對卷下「挂僧衣」、「脫僧衣」和「戴鐵鉗子」、「脫鐵鉗子」等四篇齋疏文字，兩組相互對稱的齋會儀式，追索這類為小孩穿戴僧衣，加上腳鐐耳環，以及脫去僧衣，解除腳鐐等種種儀式習俗的意涵，以迄今日為幼兒穿戴解脫衍生的習俗，如「記名弟子」或「跳牆和尚」等儀式的源頭，在在說明這些穿戴解脫衣物或器具等，並非徒為裝飾，求其好看而已，實際上都以保護兒童的生命為主要目的，並且具有推廣宗教信仰的作用。
