The rationale, significances of the study Religious beliefs is a very important field in every culture, in relation to the spiritual elements, reflecting the values inherited from one generation to another generation, represents a part of the human worldview.
In the morphological expression of religious beliefs, Shamanism is a special form of religious, its formation associated with the tribal mode. "Religion Shaman is polytheism in nature. It is believed that all things in nature have a soul that our mental lives are presented in natural phenomena and in all events, whether of men or of something else, are provided that the action of the souls "[4, pg. In religious encyclopedias also the definition of "Shaman is the original religion of polytheism opinion or polytheism with strong roots in the cult of nature with generally recognized heaven who is Supreme Being".
Natural devotion and admit things have souls, or between the world of the living and the dead are the contact. The living, the dead can communicate with each other through those who are able Special features although each country has its own nuances, but the common denominator is that Shamanism. The researchers came up with a number of typical cases in Siberia, China called Yu (Northern China) or Nan (Southern China), Korea - Gut, Vietnam with Len dong, which is the Shamanism's form. These forms are common characteristics of shamanism.
That is the Shamanic practitioners to get yourself in that ecstatic state for the release of his soul or the incarnation of divinity with belief that is possible contact with god Father, receive the power from the supernatural world for health, exorcism, the pursuit of fortune. Len dong is the most characteristic practice of the Holy Mother and Gut is Korean Shaman's ritual. In both countries, we see many similarities in the two rites, it creates unique features in common denominator Shamanism. Len dong and Gut are taken particularly interest by many researchers.
In Vietnam, there are many works of researchers such as Ngo Duc Thinh, Le Thi Hao, Mai Ngoc Truc. There are also many works of foreign researchers to len dong ritual of Vietnam and comparison with the Shaman rituals with other countries. The research that has outlined a 4 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com comprehensive picture of a religion is considered to be the native religion of Vietnam – the Holy Mother. In Korea, the extremely popular and ceremonial activities of Gut was publicly acknowledged early, it became a profession were licensed by the Korean Culture and Information Ministry.
In the process of learning about the religion of the two countries in general and the Holy Mother of Vietnam, Korean Shamanism in particular, we find that there are many similarities and differences of these two types of religion. Currently in Vietnam through surveys we found very little documents with which research comparing to len dong ritual of Vietnam and Gut Korea. In general there are only three works by three researchers Laurel Kendall, Bui Thi Thoa and Lee Geon. However, these studies only offer general comparative.
Furthermore, conservation issues and promoting positive values in len dong rituals of a religion in Holy Mother among the social status in the current is a difficult issue. Meanwhile, the Korean government has been trying to preserve, promote and exploit effectively the traditional cultural values of Gut on tourism development. In this context, I chose the topic “Comparing Len Dong Ritual of Vietnam and Gut of Korea (the case study in Hanoi and Seoul)" to study this issue in completing and detailing the comparison between the level of this important religious ritual. This study hopes to contribute to provide clearer information about the len dong of Vietnamese and Gut of Korea.
This will be a useful resource for managing the work of preparing and conducting performances of cultural exchange between the two countries Vietnam and Korea in a more efficient manner. Besides, this research also opens new research directions in Shaman rituals of other countries in the compared with len dong of Vietnam. Literature review There have been many studies on the Vietnamese Holy Mother and Korean Shamanism. In Vietnam, the study of Vietnamese Holy Mother may include two collective works "Dao Mau Vietnam" by Ngo Duc Thinh.
In this work he presents a 5 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com fairly complete picture of the details of Holy Mother, and the chau van lyric, to help the reader imagine a comprehensive and direct view of Holy Mother in Vietnam. Besides, "Len dong Journeys of spirits, and destinies", this work is replayed one hau dong mixed reviews of the author, and new issues are mentioned. There are also researchers such as Nguyen Kim Hien, Nguyen Thi Hien, Le Hong Ly. with the works was is posted on website http://www.vn about Vietnamese Holy Mother.
Regarding Korean documents, notably the works of Hong Tae Han with titled "Our World Mutang Gut" published by the Institute of Anthropology in 2009. The book mentioned aspects and the meaning is expressed in stage performances Gut, and Gut in some localities represented. A book called "Korean Shamanism" presents an overview of the history and development process of a shamanism in Korea. Especially interesting is "Individuals Gut - SenamGut" presented of Gut in Seoul own, with the presentation quite meticulous about personal Gut rituals.
Comparing issue len dong of Vietnam and Gut of Korea in particular was mentioned in the following three researches: Firstly, works "Khi nào Gut giống lên đồng vài điểm tương đồng giữa Hàn Quốc và Việt Nam" by Laurel Kendall. In this work the author mainly compares the differences and similarities in terms of the basic elements of len dong ritual and the Gut. Secondly is the work of Bui Thi Hoa, "Những tương đồng và khác biệt trong “Lên đồng” của người Việt và “Gut” của người Hàn " in Journal of Northeast Asian Studies, No. The paper compares a general way about the two rituals.
Thirdly is minor thesis of Lee Yeon with the subject “len dong of Vietnam and a few comparing with Korea's Gut". The author focuses research on len dong of Vietnam, which has made some comparisons in the basic elements of ritual. Issue comparison between len dong and Gut has not been studied in a complete, affordable stop at three aforementioned works, in which the authors only give a general match between the len dong and Gut. Moreover, due to the Gut is divided into several categories depending on the division based on any basis, so the above limitations are 6 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com not yet a comparison between len dong of Viet Nam case study particular study in Gut of Korea.
That will cause mistaken that Gut of Korean only one type. Hopefully, additional research will contribute somewhat above shortcomings and create momentum to continue for new research directions len dong and Gut in common denominator Shamanism.
