麒麟的寓意
The implication of Kirin
是上古中國人企望出現(xiàn)的吉祥動物，它們的出現(xiàn)表示一代的幸福。
They are the auspicious animals that ancient Chinese hoped to appear. Their appearance shows the happiness of a generation.
因此，那時的人們希望麒麟總是伴隨著自己，給自己帶來幸運和光明，而辟除不祥。當上古時代的這種信仰被傳承下來的同時，麒麟所具有的吉祥意義也隨之被廣大民眾公認且牢牢地存在于人們的意識之中，麒麟便成了某種意念的象征，某種意境的表現(xiàn)，某種力量的顯示，并啟發(fā)人們的想像，引導人們的精神去契合某種意念，進入一種特定的境界，給人們以希望、安慰和某種追求的力量，化入民俗生活之中，表現(xiàn)在民族文化的各個方面。
Therefore, people at that time hoped that Kirin would always be with him, bring him luck and light, and dispel ill omen. When the belief in ancient times was passed down, the auspicious significance of Qilin was recognized by the general public and firmly existed in people's consciousness. Qilin became a symbol of a certain idea, a manifestation of a certain artistic conception, a display of a certain strength, and inspired people's imagination, guiding people's spirit to fit into a certain idea and enter a specific realm To give people hope, comfort and some kind of pursuit of strength, into the folk life, performance in all aspects of national culture.
