腾格里信仰

腾格里信仰是突厥人、蒙古人、匈人和匈奴等中亚游牧民族的传统信仰^[1]，带有萨满教、泛灵信仰、图腾崇拜和祖先崇拜色彩。腾格里信仰以一神论思想为主^[2]^[3]，崇拜中心神灵腾格里（突厥语：𐱅𐰭𐰼𐰃‬ ẗŋr̈y→täŋri、täŋäri或täŋiri；保加利亞語：Тангра Tangra；土耳其語：Tanrı；蒙古语：ᠲᠩᠷᠢ Tngri（英语：Tngri）；達斡爾語：tangar /təŋgər/^[4]；哈萨克语：تاڭىر Тәңір 回鶻語： /tängri/；維吾爾語：تەڭرى tengri^[5]）。后由于受到佛教、印度教等影响，腾格里被加上各种称呼，分裂成为众多神灵，17世纪后甚至出现“九十九腾格里”的说法，有学者因而称之为“一神论和多神论的结合”^[6]。在欧洲，可萨人、保加尔人、马扎尔人^[7]和阿瓦尔人也曾信仰腾格里^[8]。腾格里信仰也是历史上突厥汗国、西突厥汗国、旧大保加利亚和保加利亚第一帝国的主要宗教。

“腾格里”一词最早出于匈奴，在中国古代典籍中，写作“撑犁”^[9]^[10]。“腾格里”，是古代中亚游牧民族对于天的称呼，与突厥同族的敕勒发展出了“苍天”（Koke Tengri；蒙古语：Khukh Tengri）的概念^[11]，而蒙古人将蒙哥·腾格里（突厥语：Mangu Tangri；蒙古语：Mongke Tangri，汉语译作长生天）作为最高信仰。现代土耳其语也称腾格里信仰为“Göktanrı dini”，意为“天神教”，语源是蒙古语的“Khukh Tengri”，即“苍天”^[12]。

腾格里信仰认为人的存在由“长生天”腾格里和大地母亲Umay维持，人需要诚实、有敬畏心地生活以调和自己的世界，并使自身的灵魂变得更为完美^[1]。

腾格里信仰在其各信众部族中逐渐被伊斯兰教、藏传佛教、摩尼教^[13]和基督教等强势宗教取代，但自20世纪90年代起苏联解体起，中亚新建立的突厥语族共和国又开始重新推崇这种传统信仰^[14]^[15]，在俄罗斯西伯利亚的萨哈共和国、鞑靼斯坦共和国、布里亚特共和国和图瓦共和国等地也有复苏迹象，但不与既有信仰冲突^[16]。吉尔吉斯共和国的前政府成员達斯坦·薩里古洛夫（英语：Dastan Sarygulov）成立了“腾格里军”（Tengir Ordo），旨在宣传腾格里信仰的传统价值；他还领导有一个声称有50万名信众的腾格里社群，支持国际腾格里信仰的研究^[17]。

蒙古薩滿信仰（英语：Mongolian shamanism）（蒙古语：Бөө мөргөл Böö mörgöl）以腾格里信仰为核心，也常常被直接称为“腾格里信仰”或“腾格里教”（Tengrism）^[18]^[19]。
