摘要
古人认为山为神灵傧居之所,川则通达于山之涂,大邑国都是承天命之处,而天子则以事神祭祀恪谨天命为主任,为本职,“国必依山川”说的正是大邑国都依山傍水,以便于君主上通于神明,以神道政教天下。学者们以经济原因解之,以今度古之论也。
The ancient people of China thought that mountain is where God lived, and river is the road lead to mountain, and that the capital of a big state is where the Son of Heaven accepts Heaven's order, and obeying Heaven's order is prime duty of the Son of Heaven, So the capital of a big state must draw near mountain and river, to the effect that the emperor communicate with God and moralize his people by divinity, Today's researchers decipher it to economic reason, which takes current thought as that of ancient.
